A beguiling kaleidoscope of a century of solo piano music to which Joseph Houston’s virtuosic and searching style is perfectly suited. The programme includes a new work by Simon Holt, written for Joseph Houston. A former student at York, he went on to study at the Royal College of Music and is the recipient of several awards, including the Musicians Benevolent Fund’s Emerging Excellence Award and selection for the Park Lane Group Young Artist Series. He made his Wigmore Hall debut in 2013 and has performed around the UK and in China.
