Looking for a Chopin crash course? Listening to his preludes will teach you everything. They offer a fantastic overview of Chopin's enormous versatility and his almost uncanny originality. Stortmy, lovely, deeply sad, expectant and sinister, it's all there. These short pieces are also a perfect showcase for a pianist's virtuostity and their skill to penetrate the listener with this wide range of emotions.

Someone who liked playing Chopin's preludes a lot was Liszt. Worshipped like a pop star, nobody could play as well as he. Liszt travelled through Europe as a pianist and reported his travels in his ‘Années de Pèlerinage'.

Liszt also loved playing Schubert's Wanderer Fantasie. The level of virtuosity is such that Schubert himself, half way through the finale, stopped playing and said: "Let the devil play this piece, because I can't". But Liszt could.

Spanish pianist Juan Pérez Floristán (1993) won one competition after another. His latest triomph was the 2021 Arthur Rubinstein Competition.

A selection of cheeses & a glass of wine (or an alternative) are included in the ticket price.
