Two Weeks Since Wigmore Hall Recital

17 February 2024

I can’t believe my Wigmore Hall recital was already two weeks ago! I was delighted with this review by Robert Hugill, and by all the lovely comments especially from those who enjoyed Cyril Scott’s Sonata! Quite a long piece to get one’s head around, but full of beauty, virtuosity and drama. I hope to play it again soon!

Viewed as ground-breaking by contemporaries, Scott's style languished in the later 20th-century but Simon Callaghan revived the piano sonata in a masterly performance

Meanwhile I’m pleased to be able to share with you these new photos by Matthew Johnson which capture the occasion perfectly.
