Programme Note
Enjoy a spectacular piano recital in the beautiful candlelit setting of St Ann's Church in Manchester. At the heart of the programme is Beethoven’s hauntingly beautiful Moonlight Sonata, a masterpiece that continues to captivate audiences with its emotional depth and melodic genius.
Performed by the exceptional concert pianist, Rose McLachlan, the programme also includes many other much-loved works. It’s the perfect addition to your weekend plans. There are many good bars and restaurants nearby to complete your night.
Rose McLachlan comes from a family of musicians and began piano lessons with her father aged 7. Shortly after she joined Chetham’s School of Music where she studied with Helen Krizos. In 2020, she entered the Royal Northern College of Music, and now is at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama under the tutelage of Charles Owen, Martin Roscoe and Ronan O’Hora. She appears frequently with orchestra, making her debut aged 13 in the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. She has performed with the BBC Concert Orchestra, conducted by Barry Wordsworth and was broadcasted twice on Radio 3. As a result of winning the PianoTexas Festival concerto competition, she performed with the Fort Worth Symphony. In 2023, she performed Saint Saens‘Carnival of the Animals’ in the Bridgewater Hall with the Hallé orchestra. In September 2024, Rose performed alongside Jean-Efflam Bavouzet and Andrea Nemecz in Mozart’s triple piano concerto, with the Manchester Camerata conducted by GáborTakács-Nagy. This was broadcast on BBCR3 and is available on the Chandos Label.
