Work: The Perilous Night

Silliness can find a place in art, as we see in some of Erik Satie’s work titles, but sometimes it is just silly. 

This Sunday, pianist Karim Said returned to the Southbank Centre to put Arnold Schoenberg under the microscope for a third and last time. Performing as part of the International Piano Series 2012/13 and the cataclysmic Rest is Noise festival, Said’s concerts have focused on the genesis of the Second Viennese School.
