Thu 8 May 2008 7:30pm at Town Hall
Famed for its elegance, beauty and delicate phrasing, Pascal Roge’s playing exemplifies all that is best in French pianism. After the recent release of his latest Debussy CD, the Evening Standard hailed Roge “[he] plays like no other pianist … this is a record that sets new benchmarks in French music.” Given in the intimate surroundings of the Town Hall, his recital focuses on Chopin and Debussy with miniatures by Faure, Ravel and Poulenc.
BBC Music magazine’s Editor, Oliver Condy, explains why he has recommended tonight’s concert:
“Pascal Roge is one of France’s most accomplished pianists, declared an ‘ambassador of French music’. And so he is. I’ve heard Roge perform the impressionist, stunning Debussy Preludes many times and you’ll not hear a finer interpreter.”
