‘At the age of five, I made friends with the upright piano in our living room. That was the beginning of my musical journey, one which continues as you read this.’ In fact, this recital forms part of Kathryn Stott’s last professional tour.
Her wide-ranging programme includes music by Fauré, to mark the centenary of his death, and a new work by Graham Fitkin.
