London Piano Festival: Carnaval Meets The Seasons

Kings Place, London, N1 9AG

Description

London Piano Festival curators, Charles Owen and Katya Apekisheva open the 2025 festival with Tchaikovsky’s The Seasons and Schumann’s Carnaval. Alongside these programmatic gems, for the 10th Anniversary, we present two world premieres by British composers Cheryl Francis-Hoad and Elena Langer.

Robert Schumann conjures up an array of characters, both real and imaginary in his effervescent Carnaval. The music is filled with dance-like revelry, lyricism and sheer ‘joie de vivre’.

By contrast, Tchaikovsky’s imaginative series of twelve pieces describes the year’s journey in vivid sound pictures. Inspired by nature, scenes of country life and the ever-turning circle of the seasons.
