Programme Note
City Music Promotions presents a new concert series in Central London at the 1901 Arts Club once each month during the 2019-2020 season (pre-dinner and post-dinner performances on the same evening of the same programme) given by British concert pianist Warren Mailley-Smith.
Due to the size of the venue, tickets for this unique series are extremely limited. Book now to avoid disappointment.
The brilliant piano music of the great Frederic Chopin has never been out of fashion since it first burst onto the international scene in the early 19th century. This music wasn’t intended for the great concert halls of today, but for the intimate setting of Parisian and London salons of the aristocracy. This was the setting where Chopin felt most at ease and improvised many of his works for the first time.
Audiences can now experience his music across ten one-hour programmes in the beautifully authentic salon-setting of London's 1901 Arts Club - with the accompaniment of a pre–performance champagne reception at 6:00pm in this intimate and exclusive venue.
The Pianist
In 2016 Warren Mailley-Smith became the first British concert pianist to perform all 233 of Chopin's works for solo piano from memory in one series, hailed as “an epic achievement” by the British press. He is currently recording the complete works on the Sleeveless Records label. Warren has performed on many occasions for the British Royal Family and his recordings are featured regularly on Classic FM and BBC Radio. Classic FM described him as "Stunning".
