Renowned pianist Sir Andras Schiff returns to the Herbst Theatre for an incomparable performance. In addition to performance acclaim, he is widely known for his warm humor and engaging presence, and is a favorite of San Francisco Performances audiences.
Sir Andras is world-renowned as a pianist, conductor, pedagogue, and lecturer. He brings masterful and intellectual insights to his performances, which have inspired audiences and critics alike. He has performed cycles of complete Beethoven sonatas as well as projects including the complete works of J.S. Bach, Haydn, Schubert, and Bartok, which constitute an important part of his work. Having collaborated with the world's leading orchestras and conductors, he now focuses primarily on solo recital, play-conducting appearances and exclusive conducting projects.
