Nobuyuki Tsujii in Europe, May 2012
May 14: "Nobu's concert in Basel was a big success. The audience was amazed by brilliant and unbelievably touching Prokofiev followed by an encore of Nobu's own piece commemorating last year's earthquake disaster in japan. Long lasting applause and lots of tears from over a thousand people in the audience." - comment posted on Facebook by Andreas B. of Basel - many, many thanks!

In May, he returned to Europe. This time, he performed concertos in Switzerland, Poland, and England. I knew in advance that the itinerary would be exciting, as he was to perform the very challenging Prokofiev's Piano Concerto No. 3 for the first time, twice, and with well respected conductors that include Masestro Vladirmir Ashkenazy and orchestras such as the Philharmonia (see table of schedule below.)
