‘… pianism of rarefied emotions and storming virtuosity …’  MusicWeb International

‘… unerring sense of colour and narrative …’  Musical Opinion

The concert opens with a wonderful work, which Schubert composed at the very end of his life.  Here, one finds a distillation of his soundworld: glorious lyricism, daring harmony, wistfulness …  This is followed by one of Schumann’s most loved compositions, with its enchanting reminiscence of childhood, and then Liszt’s arrangement of Schumann’s famous song Widmung.  The second half opens with a work by the highly acclaimed West Country composer Clive Jenkins and ends with Chopin’s final Sonata, a creation of grandeur and consummate beauty.
