Dark, dramatic, and far ahead of its time 🌑
Here, @bryanpianist performs the electrifying first movement of one of Mozart’s rare concertos in the minor key during the FIMA 2025 Closing Gala at UdK Berlin – culminating in the beginning of the gripping cadenza, where the pianist stands entirely alone.

Could this be a violin concerto in disguise? 👀
12-year-old @connorchong1 took on the fiery first movement of Bach’s Piano Concerto No. 1 in D minor, a work whose original version may actually have been written for violin nearly 300 years ago.
An impressive performance full of energy and musical maturity. 🔥

At only 8 years old, @becherualexandru.piano took the stage with orchestra for his very first piano concerto performance during the FIMA 2025 Closing Gala. 💜
Performing Bach’s Concerto in f minor, BWV 1056, he brought remarkable focus and musicality to one of the most expressive and emotional Baroque concertos.
A very special milestone! ✨🎉
