Overview
Described by The New York Times as a ‘performer of near-superhuman technical prowess’, Marc-André Hamelin traces the connections and correspondences between works by Haydn and Beethoven and Medtner and Rachmaninov in his latest Wigmore Hall recital. His programme includes the spectacular virtuosity of Rachmaninov’s Second Piano Sonata and symphonic grandeur of Beethoven’s early Op. 2 No. 3.
