CANCELLED - Monthly Monday Organ Recital - Buckinghamshire Organists Association: Gerard Anderson

John Robertson Piano concert
3:00pm - 4:30pm

Pianist John Robertson returns to St Mary and St Giles for a recital of major works from the classical repertoire. Opening with a Bach Prelude and Fugue, the first half centres on Beethoven’s challenging A major Sonata Op.101, the first of his five late sonatas and concludes with the rich romanticism of Brahms displayed in his two Rhapsodies Op.79. The second half is given over to two major works by the great 19th century pianist, Franz Liszt: his 3 Concert Studies and the sublime beauty of his Benediction de Dieu dans la Solitude. Expect to be thrilled and moved.
