A Romantic Encore!
July 24 & 25
Katia Skanavi created such a sensation last year, all you could say was “More!” Her all Chopin recording was selected by Gramophone as the Classical CD of the Month for its “rapturous virtuosity and deeply touching” performance. So we’ve built an evening around her ravishing performances of Chopin including his poetic Variations on “La ci darem la mano” from Mozart’s Don Giovanni and the awe-inspiring Andante spianato and Grande Polonaise brilliante. Add in a lively overture by Smetana and the fiery dramatics of Bizet’s Symphony and you have a night to remember.
Smetana - Overture to The Bartered Bride
Chopin - Variations on “La ci darem la mano”
Chopin - Andante spianato and Grande Polonaise brilliante
Bizet - Symphony No. 1 in C Major
