Yulianna Avdeeva abrió el Ciclo de Grandes Intérpretes de la Fundación Scherzo con un brillante concierto y un programa perfilado por una interesante narrativa que concluyó con la desbordante Sonata en si menor de Liszt.

Superb pianism in unexpected repertoire from Paul Lewis, while the Beethoven with which he made his name doesn't quite stack up.

Coupling Busoni's arrangements of Bach with Beethoven and Liszt with Mussorgsky, Paul Lewis's programme ranged from inward contemplation to thrilling drama. Despite his elegant lyricism and nuanced readings, the recital was slightly marred by some surprising technical flaws.

In around 1822, an eleven-year-old Franz Liszt performed for Beethoven. It’s claimed that Beethoven gave him his blessing and kissed him on the forehead. A lifetime later, in 1885, Liszt wrote La lugubre gondola, a harsh, drastically dissonant piano piece commemorating the death of Wagner.It’s easy to forget how short the nineteenth century was.
