As requested, a lunchtime recital of the “Heartlands” programme
Heartlands presents core piano repertoire of particular significance to the pianist. Busoni’s masterful arrangement of Bach's Partita no.2 for solo violin has deep emotional scope, moving from moments of sublime intimacy to soaring majesty. Beethoven’s Sonata No.21 is a key work from his ‘heroic’ decade of composition taking the listener on an emotional journey from struggle to triumph and release.
A selection of Rachmaninov’s lyrical and soulful preludes from Op.23 concludes the recital. A virtuosic recital programme drawn across a broad arc of passion and nostalgia.
Performed and presented by Rupert Egerton-Smith, described by New York Concert Review as a ‘pianist and musician of the highest calibre’.
