Jeremy Chan at Steinway Hall for the Keyboard Trust
Jeremy Chan at Steinway Hall London for the Keyboard Trust where his eclectic programme of the four B’s made for a box office success: Bach, Beethoven, Brahms and Barber!
Bach as seen through the eyes of Rachmaninov and Beethoven particularly genial with the only Sonata that he was happy to add a title too describing a sad departure but also the glad return.
Brahms with four of his most poignantly ethereal and imperious miniature tone poems and Barber with demonic knotty twine that only Horowitz could completely hope to unwind.
Elena Vorotko writes :’ I thought Jeremy was rather good last night, definitely had something to say and rather beautiful/poetic in all the right places, made a rather hoarse piano sound rather beautiful. I thought he held back the volume skillfully without lacking contrast till he got to Barber and the let loose, rather rightly. I thought there was clarity overall and great attention to articulation and textural detail. I sat in front row with Garo from the Pharos Cultural Centre in Cyprus who really liked Jeremy’s playing ‘
