Programme Note

Dazzlingly virtuosic pianist Clare Hammond presents a programme of piano music that spans over four centuries, beginning with a suite by prodigy of the court of Louis XIV, Elisabeth Jacquet de la Guerre. Favourites of the piano repertoire, Debussy’s impressionistic Préludes are complemented by sprightly bee-inspired pieces and Lili Boulanger’s evocative miniatures.
