Tyler Hay piano
Mon 6 Feb 2017
Chopin Scherzo No 1 in B minor Op 20
Haydn Sonata in E-flat major
Liszt Méphisto Waltz No 1 Variations on Weinen Klagen Sorgen Zagen
The fearless virtuosity of Tyler Hay has propelled him to the top of his class: last year he won the Gold Medal at the Royal Northern College of Music, where he recently completed his studies, and he has already made his Wigmore Hall debut. His dazzling technique is brilliantly harnessed in a programme in which Haydn’s last and greatest piano sonata is flanked by Chopin’s dramatic and fiendishly complicated Scherzo No 1 and two contrasting works by Liszt.
