Something a little different today, courtesy of Israeli concert pianist Boris Giltburg. Boris won the Queen Elisabeth Piano Competition in Brussels in 2013, and is now busy forging a very successful career (read his blog here).

I interviewed Boris last year and you can watch here:
This interview is one of a whole series where I chat to established concert pianists; it’s called the Classical Conversations Series.
