Sorabji in Seattle
on: August 18, 2014, 10:20:48 PM
A Sorabjian mini-Fest is about to take place in the Poncho Concert Hall at Cornish College of the Arts in Seattle, Washington, USA.

On Sunday 7 September at 7:00 p.m., Reinier van Houdt will give a recital including extracts from Piano Symphony No. 4 (which he premièred in Utrecht, Netherlands in 2003).

On Tuesday 28 October at 8:00 p.m., Jonathan Powell will give the following programme:

Sorabji: Piano Sonata No. 1
Albeniz: Iberia, Book IV
Sorabji: Le Jardin Parfumé
Szymanowski: Piano Sonata No. 2

On Friday 31 October at noon, Jonathan Powell will give a Piano Masterclass and, finally, on Saturday 1 November at 2:00 p.m., he will give his third complete performance of Sorabji’s Sequentia Cyclica super Dies Iræ.

No one interested in attending any of this will presumably face the prospect of being anything other than "Sleepless in Seattle"!...

Best,

Alistair
