Ronan Apcar - Brahms and the Opposite of Brahms

Overview

Pianist Ronan Apcar returns to Canberra with his trademark scintillating piano playing in this virtuosic program, 'Brahms and the Opposite of Brahms.' Beloved Romantic composer Johannes Brahms' beautifully tender piano pieces are starkly contrasted by modern works from Australian and American composers in this exciting programme of pianistic extremes. Whiplash transitions make the beautiful more fragile and the violent more terrifying. Performed in one uninterrupted go, this 50-minute recital shows why Ronan is "a force to be reckoned with" (ClassikON). A memorable concert that is not to be missed.
