Sunday Concerts: Viv McLean Fundraising Piano Recital

British pianist Viv McLean returns to Conway Hall for a fundraising concert featuring a wide variety of music spanning three centuries. Three of the extremely characterful Sonatas of Scarlatti will be followed by the monumental Beethoven Appassionata Sonata, a selection of Chopin’s beautiful dances, Gershwin’s excitingly virtuosic solo version of the great Rhapsody in Blue and finally a chance to try out your tango moves with a spot of Piazzola.

Scarlatti | Sonata in D minor K213
Beethoven | Sonata in C sharp minor ‘Moonlight’ Op.27/2
Beethoven | Sonata in F minor ‘Appassionata’ Op.57
Chopin | Waltz in A minor Op.34/2
Chopin | 5 Mazurkas Op.7
Chopin | Waltz in C sharp minor Op.64/2
Gershwin | Rhapsody in Blue
Piazzolla | Oblivion
Piazzolla | Libertango

Extraordinary originality, superb simplicity, and fingers of steel behind muscles of velvet. He is an otherworldly young man- he plays with the genius one finds in those who know how to forget themselves, naturally placing themselves at the right point to meet the music, this mystery of the moment.” – Le Monde
