What awaits me?
What is special about the concert?
Fanny Mendelssohn’s »Easter Sonata« is rarely heard and rarely recorded. The work was only recognised as hers in 2012.
How does it sound?
Description
Musical talent is abundantly distributed in Isata Kanneh-Mason’s family. The eldest of seven highly musical siblings ranks among the piano scene’s best. Her recital explores the spectrum between the seemingly simple and the highly virtuosic. Fanny Mendelssohn’s »Easter Sonata« is a long-lost gem that was only recognised as the composer’s work a few years ago.
