A man, a piano, and you. Garrick Ohlsson is a revered American
pianist, a master of the intimate art of the solo recital. His
commanding presence – very tall, and with one of the largest
handspans of any pianist – is at odds with the delicacy and finesse
for which he’s famous. Half a tonne of glossy black wood and
gleaming metal becomes a time machine, allowing the music of his
favourite composers to speak to us with uncluttered immediacy. If you
just want to hear good music beautifully performed, this is an ideal
opportunity.
