Recitals
Hear music performed by musicians at the top of their game.
We've got recital from one of the UK's finest sitar players, Roopa Panesar; pianist Piotr Anderszewski brings his technical prowess to music by Bach and Bartók; celebrated cellist Yo-Yo Ma teams up with long-time collaborator Kathryn Stott; Samantha Ege returns with another brilliant programme of music by women; Stephen Hough appears as both pianist and composer with his own Sonatina Nostalgica; and Dudok Quartet pairs old and new in a typically ear-opening programme.
Events
Dudok Quartet: Abandoned Voices
Alongside something hot off the press, death, despair, and eternity stalk the Dudoks’ typically ear-opening programme in which Messiaen tempers the anguished ardour of Gesualdo and Schubert.
Yo-Yo Ma and Kathryn Stott
Cellist Yo-Yo Ma reunites with long-time duo partner Kathryn Stott in two masterly sonatas and sublimely unruffled Arvo Pärt.
Her Stories with Samantha Ege
‘Bold, brilliant, and daring women’ nourish Samantha Ege’s recital of 20th and 21st century piano music, including a work by Havanan ‘fusionista’ Camila Cortina Bello.
Stephen Hough: Sonatina Nostalgica
Appearing as both pianist and composer, Stephen Hough wraps fiery Schumann and Chopin around his own sonatina trip down memory lane.
Piotr Anderszewski
Beethoven and Bartók both insist that there’s no such thing as a ‘mere bagatelle’ when Polish pianist Piotr Anderszewski pairs two compelling sets of inventive miniatures.
Roopa Panesar
One of the UK’s finest sitar players, Roopa Panesar returns for a concert of Indian classical music, collaborating with trailblazing Indian classical and contemporary musicians.
