Known for his technical brilliance, improvisational freedom, and expressive range, Cziffra redefined what was possible on the instrument and remains an enduring figure of artistic resilience. Channeling that same spirit, as part of the Cziffra Festival, Balázs brings a blend of depth, nuance, and effortless command to New York, showcasing the distinct identity of the Hungarian piano tradition. Steering clear of standard programming, Balázs offers a captivating selection of Romantic works. The evening opens with the warmth of Schumann’s Widmung (transcribed by Liszt) and the vivid storytelling of Carnaval. The music then flows through the energy of Liszt’s Spanish Rhapsody, the elegance of Chopin’s Andante spianato et grande polonaise brillante, and Liszt’s iconic Hungarian Rhapsody No. 12, before concluding with a dramatic finish in Ravel’s La Valse. Presented by Cziffra Festival with support from the National Cultural Fund. |

Thrill to the huge scale and intense drama of Ralph Vaughan Williams' 1936 cantata Dona Nobis Pacem ('Give us peace') – an impassioned plea for peace and understanding instead of war. Powerful and hopeful, this choral work's rich harmonisation and heartfelt Walt Whitman verse remain relevant today. Echoing those same sentiments of peace is Leonard Bernstein's exciting 1965 choral masterpiece, Chichester Psalms – a triumphant blend of Hebrew text, vibrant melodies and syncopated rhythms. The concert also features a true orchestral treat - Aaron Copland's invigorating 1944 ballet Appalachian Spring, evoking a joyful young American Pioneer couple as they prepare for their wedding day. Accompanying Worcester Festival Choral Society are acclaimed soloists Susanna Fairbairn (soprano) and Jolyon Loy (baritone) and the superb Meridian Sinfonia symphony orchestra, all under the baton of Worcester Cathedral's director of music Samuel Hudson. So come and enjoy an evening of music that will stay long in the memory, and the heart! Book tickets at www.wfcs.online or call the TicketSource Hotline: 0333 666 3366 |
