Programme

This concert features music by Debussy, Satie and Chopin, whose music made an indelible impression on the Parisian arts scene at the turn of the 20th century. Through this programme, Alice Sara aims to capture the hour of twilight, between day and night, when the air seems full of mystery, fleetingly saturated in blue and purple hues before inexorably darkening to blackness. Her success in accomplishing this feat underlines her status as a pianist of the very highest calibre.
