Mark Viner at St Mary’s
Mastery and mystery of a unique artist and thinking musician
Well Dr Mather said it all when he exclaimed that he could not understand why this unique artist is not better known on the concert platform worldwide.
Endless amounts of CD’s of some of the most interesting repertoire receiving unanimous praise from the critics and live performances like today of impeccable artistry.
Sharing amazing insights into the life and times of musicians we have only before read about in books he also brought them vividly to life not only in words but above all in music. A critic in Vicenza could not believe her ears when she heard him playing Alkan and certainly found it hard to believe her eyes when she saw his score with a finger on every note – and there were many many notes scrawled across the page.
