This is followed by two of Chopin's four Impromptu's\, No. 2 written in 1839 and Chopin's favourite of the four\, No. 3 written in 1842. Impromptu No. 2 begins calmly and delicately\, but then changes to a heroic military-like theme\, finishing with a final flurry of activity\, whilst Impromptu No. 3 is filled with soaring melodies but uneasiness. Exiled Russian composer Nicolai Medtner wrote his 'Idylle' Sonata in London in 1937\, with a brief to write a less demanding work\, as many of his previous compositions were considered two difficult for many pianists\, and this Sonata is filled with a simple but happy innocence. The programme concludes with two of Liszt's exhilarating works\, Le Rossignol\, with it's melancholic but rich romanticism and the grand and virtuosic Valse de l'opéra Faust.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n[AIGetTwitterFeeds ai_username='PianoWeekFest' ai_numberoftweets='3' ai_tweet_title='Your Title']
