Beginning with Sonata KV 332\, a work of striking cantabile\, vivid musical contrasts and lavish embellishments unusually written out by Mozart in the central Adagio\, Mark puts Brahms’ Sechs Klavierstücke at the heart of his performance. Comprising four Intermezzi\, a Ballade and a Romanze\, all contrasting in mood\, the six pieces are surreptitiously linked by a three-note motif\, cleverly transformed so that each one stands as an individualised jewel. This is followed by Chopin's D-flat Major Nocturne with an elegant ornamentation of its highly vocalised melody and Ballade No 3 in A flat Major inspired by Adam Mickiewicz’s poem Świtezianka. Whilst the composer has heavily redefined Nocturnes as a musical form departing from the simplicity of earlier compositions by John Field\, he is often considered as a pioneer of the Ballade as an abstract musical form. The third of Ballade by Chopin is a popular\, impassioned piece which ends in the triumphant key of A flat Major after a superbly conceived coda. \n\n\nBOOK TICKETS\n\n\n[AIGetTwitterFeeds ai_username='PianoWeekFest' ai_numberoftweets='3' ai_tweet_title='Your Title']
