Gabrielė Sutkutė at the British Institute of Florence and at the Palazzo Albicini in Forli
Beginning with the multi faceted trifles that make up Beethoven’s youthful Bagatelles op 33 and ending with Papà Haydn , his teacher, with the simple purity of the Menuet and Trio from his Sonata in B minor.
A moment of sublime reflection after the turbulence of Scriabin’s search for his star in the Fourth Sonata or the youthful exuberance of the Variations op 3 by Szymanowski.
Debussy’s Images Book 1 were an oasis of glowing whispered beauty where Gabrielé’s refined sensibility turned these three tone poems into a scintillating stream of golden sounds with a palette of subtle colours that have been hidden within this noble 1890 Bechstein for too long.
