Programme Note
Pianist Lucas Wong guides listeners from the haunting depths of darkness in Mozart’s Fantasy in C minor and Taubert’s rarely performed Piano Sonata No 2,‘Grande’, ultimately offering a glimmer of hope through a selection of Mendelssohn’s ‘Songs Without Words’, concluding with the enchanting Spring Song. We acknowledge the support of the Canada Council for the Arts for this recital.
