Programme

Overview

Step into an intimate salon recital as acclaimed pianist Varvara Tarasova navigates the lush lyricism of Schubert and Liszt before unleashing Prokofiev’s sharp rhythms and enigmatic miniatures. A rare chance to experience Romantic warmth and Modernist audacity up close.In an embrace of contrasts and refinement, this recital by multi-award-winning pianist Varvara Tarasova transports listeners from the sunlit lyricism of 19th-century Romanticism into the edgy vibrancy of early 20th-century Russian Modernism. The first half unfolds with Schubert’s radiant A-major Sonata, its graceful themes and virtuosic flourishes giving way to the expressive depth of the B-flat major Impromptu, before Liszt’s brilliant transformations illuminate both Schubert’s melodies and his own concert étude with sparkling intensity. After intermission, Tarasova shifts gears into Prokofiev’s daring sound world, beginning with the fleet-footed, enigmatic miniatures of Visions fugitives and culminating in the muscular energy and dramatic drive of the Piano Sonata No.2. Set within the intimate surround of a turn-of-the-century salon, every phrase and dynamic contrast resonates with clarity, inviting audiences to savor each facet of this richly varied program.
