about
Per Tengstrand is rapidly establishing himself as one of today's most exciting pianists. He has been described by the Washington Post as "technically resplendent, powerful, intuitively secure," and by the New York Times as "a superb Swedish pianist" whose recital "was rewarding, both for its unusual programming and for his eloquent, technically polished performances". Tengstrand is the subject of a highly acclaimed Swedish documentary entitled Solisten (The Soloist), which was featured at the International Festival of Cinema and Technology in New York City. In 2005, he was decorated by King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden with the Royal Medal Litteris et Artibus for outstanding service to the arts, the youngest recipient ever to be so honored. In 2007-08, Per Tengstrand performs the Schumann Piano Concerto with the West Shore Symphony Orchestra and returns in recital to the Essex Winter Series, in addition to engagements in Sweden. Tengstrand's 2006-07 season included performances of Beethoven's Emperor Concerto, with the National Symphony Orchestra at Wolf Trap Festival under festival conductor Emil de Cou; a series of all-Beethoven recitals throughout Sweden; Wilhelm Stenhammar's Piano Concerto No. 2 with the Residentie Orkest in den Haag under Neeme Jarvi; and a Mozart piano concerto with the Royal Philharmonic in Stockholm under Leonard Slatkin. Other performances included the Emperor Concerto with Mobile Symphony, Schumann's Piano Concerto with Southwest Florida Symphony, an
