Moonlight Reflections: Di Xiao at Wigmore Hall

Frances Wilson, 22nd October

Chinese pianist Di Xiao is already making a name for herself with sell-out concerts in many of Europe’s most prestigious venues and a triumphant tour of China, as well as two recordings. Her debut recital at London’s Wigmore Hall was a programme conjuring up images of moonlight while “illuminating other byways along the way”.Di Xiao opened with Beethoven’s Sonata Opus 27 No.
