Programme

Ravel Gaspard de la nuit
Beethoven Waldstein Sonata
Beethoven Moonlight Sonata

Kanneh-Mason performs three landmark works of the piano repertoire: Ravel’s wildly difficult Gaspard de la nuit; Beethoven’s Waldstein Sonata, which helped kickstart his Heroic Period; and his moody, evocative and utterly memorable Moonlight Sonata. Nestled within this extraordinary programme are two spellbinding works by Grammy-nominated Bulgarian-British composer Dobrinka Tabakova.

Kanneh-Mason is “the real deal musically: substantial, a developing pianist with ideas, viewpoints, and mature engagement” (classical-scene.com). This piano recital will only further burnish Kanneh-Mason’s inevitably rising star.
