Programme Note
Renowned for his mastery of Chopin's repertoire, Amit Yahav brings to life a programme dedicated to the works of this iconic composer, alongside pieces by those he inspired.
Chopin’s nocturnes, imbued with lyricism, passion, and turmoil, are the heart of the recital. These captivating pieces not only highlight Chopin's genius but also influenced his lesser-known Norwegian student, Tellefsen, and the celebrated French composer Fauré, whose death centenary we commemorate this year. The evening culminates with Chopin’s 3rd Sonata, a pinnacle of his creativity, where the final movement races forward, echoing the spirit of Poland's national resurgence.
Join us for an unforgettable journey through the world of Chopin and his musical legacy.
