Keys to Heaven
Keys To Heaven Pianofestival is a young festival at Esterházy Palace in Eisenstadt (first edition 2024). Under the artistic direction of pianist Maria Radutu, the format links core piano repertoire with other styles such as jazz, pop/soul, film and dance music. Performances take place in the palace’s signature spaces, especially the Haydn Hall and the Empire Hall, with additional rooms added depending on the edition.
