Overview

A talented member of the remarkable musical family, pianist Jeneba offers a programme that includes two major sonatas: Chopin’s iconic ‘Funeral March’ sonata (1839) and the second of Skryabin’s ten examples (1898). Of her recent recording of Florence Price’s Piano Concerto, The Guardian wrote that her playing ‘is vigorous and authoritative. Price could have no more persuasive an advocate’.
