Duration

In this all-Hispanic recital, pianist Annabelle Lawson evokes the colours and sensuality of Spain and Latin America through music spanning three centuries. Starting at the end – with Mexican composer Javier Álvarez’s salsa-inspired Triple Enclave, the programme juxtaposes Antonio Soler’s dazzling late-Baroque fandango with the sensual, candlelit fandango from Enrique Granados’ Goyescas; often considered the pinnacle of nineteenth-century Spanish piano music. At the emotional heart of the programme lies the ever-popular Quejas o La maja y el ruiseñor, also from Goyescas. Annabelle concludes her programme with the exquisite miniatures of Catalan-born Mompou, followed by the edgy bitonality of Alberto Ginastera’s Argentine character sketches.
