19th CENTURY CHARACTER PIECES FOR PIANO
June 9th at 18:30 to June 11th at 13:30

Romantic composers moved away from sonatas for piano in favour of shorter pieces with poetic titles. Chopin’s Ballade no.1, Brahms’ 2nd Rhapsody, Mendelssohn’s Bee’s Wedding and Liszt’s Un Sospiro, are amongst the familiar repertoire. Schumann, Grieg and Rachmaninov also feature.
