Italian pianist, Giacomo Dalla Libera and Scottish-Japanese pianist, Mariko Asakawa-North will team up at the Mint Methodist to give a recital of works for piano duet (four hands at one piano). The concert will begin with works by Schubert (an aficionado of the genre) including the Grande Rondeau in A major – the final piano duet to be published in the composers short lifetime. This will be followed with Five Pieces by the 20th/21st century Hungarian composer György Ligeti, perhaps best known for his eerie and evocative music featured in Kubricks 2001: A Space Odyssey and Eyes Wide Shut. The recital will conclude with a rendition of Ravels own transcription of his epic work: Bolero.
