WHAT I LEARNT FROM FRANZ LISZT: The Magic; the Music; the Memories
David Hood will provide a pre-concert talk on the music of Liszt and provide a reflection on having Liszt as a musical companion over many decades & touching on nationality; Liszt’s creative journey & importance; & the odd trickster moment, during his long life.
Lullabies by Nat Bartsch
Nat Bartsch is a genre-bending pianist and composer blending neoclassical and jazz to create lyrical, beautiful music. In 2017, Nat became a mother and created a suite of lullabies, inspired by Max Richter’s Sleep album and the children’s genre-crossing of the Teeny Tiny Stevies. Influenced by music therapy research and her son’s stages of development, Nat composed a series of pieces designed to encourage babies to sleep.
