Good Morning, Marylebone! Chloë Hanslip and Charles Owen at Wigmore Hall

An enjoyable and vivid performance representing music spanning three centuries of history

Still only in its second year, the London Piano Festival has already established itself as a major player in the capital’s music scene.

A remarkable evening of exceptionally fine pianism and inventive programming, featuring seven of the UK's leading pianists in rich and varied repertoire.

Pianists Charles Owen and Katya Apekisheva presented a lively recital programme in what might be better described as ‘an orchestral concert for two pianos’; such was the range of sounds the two were able to conjure from their instruments.Milhaud’s Scaramouche Suite was a frothy, joyful opener, as one might expect from a member of ‘Les Six’ in a work based on theatrical music.

De Beethoven à Ravel avec un écart vers Perkinson, le violoniste et le pianiste ont proposé un récital varié et toujours maîtrisé.

An exceptional programme with insight, didn’t quite fulfil itself with renditions that had understanding, but lacked a little polish and refinement.
