Charles Owen & Katya Apekisheva (piano)
Featuring a stunning four-hand arrangement of Stravinsky’s The Rite of Spring as their centrepiece, these two outstanding pianists (co-Artistic Directors of the London Piano Festival) bring us a programme inspired by the seasons, including excerpts from Tchaikovsky’s solo work for piano on the same theme.
Highly-acclaimed among piano duos performing today, Charles Owen and Katya Apekisheva are passionate advocates for the wide range of piano duet repertoire. In parallel with their extensive solo careers, they have been performing together around the world since 2001. Don’t miss this spectacular virtuoso evening!
