Overview

Grace Francis owns a rare gift for drawing delicate expressive shadings and arresting dramatic gestures from her instrument. She channels her poetic pianism into works charged with vibrant imagery, including the visceral energy of Liszt’s Après une lecture du Dante and Carl Vine’s haunting Bagatelles.
