Internationally renowned pianist Paul Lewis brings his elegant artistry and profound musicality to Powell Hall in a solo recital.
Paul Lewis plays a solo recital at Powell Hall on Wednesday, April 28, 2027, at 7:30 PM. It's a single-performer night—just Lewis and the piano—presented as part of the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra's 2026/27 season.
Lewis is an internationally renowned pianist, and the descriptions that follow him give you a good sense of how he approaches the keyboard. The Times in the UK called him "subtle but authoritative," and the Chicago Tribune described his playing as a "fine balance of Olympian poise and emotional engagement." He's widely regarded as one of today's foremost interpreters of piano repertoire, known for bringing elegant artistry and profound musicality to the stage. If you've never seen him live, that's the kind of evening you're looking at: a performer who can hold the room with a quiet, controlled presence while still letting the emotional weight of the music through.
The recital is part of the SLSO's piano recital series at Powell Hall, which is now in its second season. It sits between two other solo dates: Janice Carissa played in February, and Yefim Bronfman follows in June. So if you're keeping track of the series, this is the middle act of the three.
