Admired around the globe for his searching interpretations of Beethoven\, Brahms\, Mozart and Schubert\, Kovacevich offers the audience Schubert’s Sonata D960\, the pinnacle of the composer’s piano oeuvre. Following the mysterious contemplation and otherworldly sonorities of the first half\, Samantha Ward joins forces with Stephen for the rest of the concert in the two-piano version of Debussy’s ‘Prélude à l'après-midi d'un faune’ and ‘En blanc et noir’\, a suite for two pianos which had its passionate adversaries in 1915. Amongst them\, Camille Saint-Saëns whose remark ‘we must bar the door of the Institut de France against a man capable of such atrocities’ made its way onto the pages of music history books. \n\n\nBOOK TICKETS\n\n\n[AIGetTwitterFeeds ai_username='PianoWeekFest' ai_numberoftweets='3' ai_tweet_title='Your Title']
