Following the release of his acclaimed album Néoréalité (launched globally by Universal Music), Steve Barakatt will present the Euro Premiere of the Néoréalité World Tour in Belgrade on Sunday, October 2.
“I am thrilled to offer this special musical moment in Belgrade, an inspiring and vibrant city that I truly love & enjoy,” says Steve Barakatt, who has recently made Montenegro his new home. “ It is also a privilege to be performing in the prestigious Kolarac Concert Hall, which has one of the best acoustics in Europe.”
The concert will offer a magnificent musical journey through Steve Barakatt’s most acclaimed compositions.He will be performing a world-class piano solo concert featuring several compositions from his latest album, a best-of from earlier releases, and some of the best-known anthems he has composed. The UNICEF anthem, which was premiered from the International Space Station in 2009, will be one of the most symbolic and emotional moments of the concert, as it is performed live by its composer.
“Néoréalité is about creating a parallel world. The recent situation of great social changes was ideal for me to be alone at the piano and create with authenticity. The creative process for Néoréalité was like a long journey into the land of imagination. A quest for purpose,” comments Steve Barakatt
