Overview
Danny Driver’s virtuosity, vibrant imagination and élan have helped position him among the leading British pianists of his generation.
He presents a characteristically broad programme, including Thomas Adès’s Chopin-inspired Mazurkas and Beethoven’s intimate Piano Sonata No. 28 in A, in which lyrical fantasy and introspection are balanced by flashes of fiery temperament.
