Poulenc Improvisation No XV- Homage a Edith Piaf; Suite Napoli
The acclaimed young pianist Mark Bebbington has been universally praised for his enthusiastic advocacy of neglected British piano music. Here, he opens his St George’s debut with a sumptuous selection of vividly stunning, quintessentially English works by John Ireland, and concludes with the charming Hommage à Édith Piaf and the Suite Napoli, that bristles with light and colour.
‘Bebbington brings inventive impulsiveness combined with an interpretation that ranges from utmost delicacy to passionate intensity.’ International Piano Magazine
