This all-French evening – both in choice of music and artists – culminates in Debussy’s elegantly flowing masterpiece of Impressionism, following a journey through the composer’s youthful exploration of spring time, a visit to an enchanted forest with elves and knights, and a piano concerto written by master of the instrument, Chopin – dazzling, virtuosic and simply enthralling.

Programme:

Debussy Printemps Chopin Piano Concerto No.1 d’Indy La Forêt enchantée Debussy La Mer
