Jonathan Powell (piano): Prokofiev & Janáček CANCELLED

Janáček’s haunting “In the Mists” and “On an Overgrown Path”, are almost Schumann-like in their simplicity. These hidden gems are contrasted with Prokofiev’s Fifth Sonata, a fascinating response to the composer’s time in France in the 1920s, and with the Sixth, the first of the composer’s War Sonatas written in Russia in 1940.

Prokofiev Sonatas Nos. 5 & 6
Janáček On an Overgrown Path
In the Mists

Please note that this concert was orignally planned for the 18th January
