Alexandra Kaptein
Dutch Classical Talent 25/26
“What is our life other than a series of preludes?”
Alexandra Kaptein is one of the four top talents participating in Dutch Classical Talent 2025/2026. Pianist Alexandra Kaptein paints a story of love, hope, and acceptance through the works of Franz Liszt, her great source of inspiration.
‘After pain and grief, belief always triumphs with Liszt,’ says Kaptein, one of the four finalists of Dutch Classical Talent. His music takes you ‘from darkness to light, from sorrow to elevation’. This program bears witness to that.
Empathy
Alexandra Kaptein highlights emotional, psychological, and spiritual peaks in the work of the visionary composer in Franz Liszt: harmony of light. ‘Her technique is flawless, her interpretive artistry demonstrates great empathy,’ says OpusKlassiek about Kaptein's debut CD Lebenswanderung with transcriptions by Liszt.
