Overview
Hailed by the Guardian as ‘a pianist who has[always] put the music before technique’, ImogenCooper offers a programme shot through with poeticnuance.
She opens with three folksong-inspiredminiatures from Janáček’s On an Overgrown Path,moves through the striking emotional contrasts ofSchumann’s Davidsbündlertänze, and closes withAlbéniz’s virtuoso evocations of Spain.
