Ron’s Toyes inspired by the Suffolk-based toymaker Ron Fuller\, is a set of miniatures which sparkles with wit\, vivacity and childlike joy. This is juxtaposed with the next piece in the programme\, Mozart’s variations on the melody now famously known as Twinkle Twinkle Little Star\, which takes the listener through a series of contrasting miniatures. Both works capture the essence of childhood in their playful directness and flights of imagination. Annabelle continues this personal reflection on the meaning of childhood\, with two works drawing inspiration from the landscape of Scotland\, where her family holidayed annually when she was growing up. The first\, Gordon’s Piano Sonata No. 1 seems to evoke by turns the ruggedness and the soulful beauty of Scotland; each bar somehow imbued with the composer’s love of a country in which he has now made a home. The Three Gaelic Melodies by John Foulds are less subtle in their Scottishness – perhaps even bordering on pastiche. Nonetheless\, in keeping with the theme of tonight’s programme\, they have a childlike charm and freshness all of their own\, bringing tonight’s recital to a close.\n\n\nBOOK TICKETS\n\n\n[AIGetTwitterFeeds ai_username='PianoWeekFest' ai_numberoftweets='3' ai_tweet_title='Your Title']\n\n
