A solo piano performance by Pascal Harris featuring the music of  Mozart, Chopin, Beethoven and Schubert

Lewis Eady Ltd

PROGRAMME:Mozart : Sonata K332 in F majorChopin : Etudes Op. 10 Nos 10, 3 &amp; 12Beethoven : Andante Favori in F majorSchubert : Sonata D958 in C minorThis recital juxtaposes the key of F major, with its associations of joy and nature, with the key of C minor with its associations of fate and despair.This is a rare chance to hear Schubert's great sonata in C minor, the first of 3 sonatas composed just months before his death, it is the most dramatic of the three and imbued with an atmosphere of despair. The finale is one of Schubert's most thrilling, reminiscent of the finale of the Death and the Maiden string quartet. The Mozart sonata, on the other hand, is full of lightness and joie de vivre, especially the sparkling finale. Beethoven's lovely limpid Andante Favori was originally written to be the slow movement of the Waldstein sonata. Chopin's Etudes are virtuosic poems. Here we have the cascading F major etude and the tempestuous 'Revolutionary' etude, in C minor. In between the famous etude in E major, known in French as 'La Tristesse' (sadness) and in Japanese as 'Wakare no Kyoku' (farewell piece).BIOPascal Harris studied piano at the University of Otago and Royal College of Music London. He has spent several years performing and teaching in Tokyo. His performances are praised for their intensity and for his sense of identification with the composers. He has released a CD of Schubert Impromptus. www.pascalharris.com
