We are honoured that he’s returning to the Festival\, where he has become an audience favourite\, for this afternoon recital. \nSigned to Decca in 2011 – the first British pianist to join the label for almost 60 years – Benjamin has since produced a handful of award-winning recordings of music by Liszt and Chopin that celebrates his dazzling palette of colours\, big-boned sound and subtlety of gesture. \nThis afternoon recital includes two of the greatest piano sonatas of the 19th Century\, both in the key of B minor. \nProgramme\nLiszt\, Franz: Two Petrarch Sonnets (Nos 123 and 104)\nLiszt\, Franz: Piano Sonata in B Minor\, S.178\nInterval\nLiszt\, Franz: Berceuse\nChopin\, Frederic: Sonata No. 3 in B minor Op. 58\n \nENCORES performed on the day:  \nLiszt\, Franz: Gnomenreigen\nGinastera: Danzas Argentinas / Argentine Dances\, Op. 2 No. 3 \nBenjamin Grosvenor piano \nSponsored by Sir Hugh and Lady Stevenson and Lady Stieff\n\n\n\n\n“With Benjamin there is no sense of routine or convention\, no sense that this is the way it has to be; he is always creative. There is something unalloyed about his playing that comes from his own sense of fantasy\, a rare emotional and musical freedom.” \n\n– Sir Mark Elder \n\n\n\nPlease note all programmes and events are subject to change and last minute alteration subject to the latest Government Covid guidelines. \n
