She plays Chopin - very concentrated, but at the same time rapt, as if she were a medium of the composer. This scene does not take place in the concert hall as usual, but at her home, very privately. Her soul speaks especially for the Russian composer Skriabin, she tells us. The brilliant artist has already played her hands bloody for him. What a declaration of love.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Economic Forum<\/span>:<\/strong>\u00a0Ms Khvedelidze, what does Skriabin mean to you - is that your favourite composer?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Ekaterine Khvedelidze<\/span>:<\/strong>\u00a0I wouldn't say that, because I love all composers.
