Programme Note
Celebrate Valentine’s Day with an evening of romantic piano music, performed by one of the UK’s leading concert pianists, the phenomenal Warren Mailley-Smith, in the beautiful setting of this Christopher Wren-designed landmark in the heart of London’s West End. A favourite with Classic FM listeners, Mailley-Smith has performed for Royalty on many occasions and he became the first british pianist to perform all 240 pieces of Chopin from memory in 2016.
This special after-dinner Valentines event is timed to allow for a relaxed, romantic evening of dinner and drinks without missing a second of the performance,
