The Fairly Relentless Fitkins

Part of the York Concerts 2022/2023

Add to my Calendar 14-10-2022 19:30 14-10-2022 21:30 36 The Fairly Relentless Fitkins Acclaimed British composer Graham Fitkin brings four unique musicians together to revel in the unremitting delight of ensemble piano playing. Unapologetically direct, joyous and highly energetic, Fitkin’s eight-handed works for two-pianos are complemented by equally lucid more intimate solos and duos from Unsuk Chin, Morton Feldman, Anna Meredith and Steve Reich. A new Britten Pears Arts’ commission for pianos, samplers and spoken voice, Bla Bla Bla, delivers a gripping and provocative finale. Sir Jack Lyons Concert Hall, York DD/MM/YYYY
