Overview

Martin James Bartlett’s recital spans a universe of emotions, musical styles and tone colours. The British pianist, renowned for crafting interpretations that speak to the heart, opens with a set of deeply affecting pieces by JS Bach that complement the daring invention of Mozart’s K331, famed for its ‘Turkish’ Rondo. Bold images and striking contrasts run through his programme’s contemplative second half.
