Date of change: 23 May 24 - T1740731475

Prom 71 - The Art of Fugue with Andras Schiff

Work:: Prom 71 (S6009)

Part of the BBC Proms.

Production:: The Art of Fugue with Andras Schiff (T1740731475)

Sir Andras Schiff's Bach performances have provided some spellbinding evenings at the Proms in recent years. Tonight the great Hungarian-born British pianist, known for interpretations of the utmost grace and intimacy, turns to Bach's encyclopedia of the art of weaving independent musical voices around a single theme. Bach didn't specify which instrument (or instruments) should play The Art of Fugue but with Schiff on a fine modern piano its rigorous logic and exuberant expression are sure to balance majesty and humility. He is joined for one of the 'mirror' fugues by his former pupil and current assistant at Berlin's Barenboim-Said Akademie, Schaghajegh Nosrati. No interval.

Performer	Andras Schiff (Sir - piano)
Performer	Schaghejegh Nosrati (piano)
