PROGRAMME TO INCLUDE
Beethoven: Sonata in E minor, Op. 90
Schubert: Sonata in B-flat, D. 960

VENUE NOTE:

World famous for her impeccable interpretations, Mitsuko Uchida always seeks the very depths of the music. And there is no better piece in which to do so than Schubert’s last piano sonata. In this monumental work, with its exceptional emotional range, the Austrian master takes us on an inner journey. Untrammelled joy and profound stillness are just two of the stations on the way. Beethoven’s self-assured, compact Piano Sonata No. 27 is the perfect counterweight. “Every time you play a great piece of music, there is a new discovery. Every time”, Uchida claims. What will she lead us to discover this time?
