In this solo recital pianist Dr Robert Taub performs iconic works of Bach, Beethoven, Bartók, and Brahms. The repertoire is deeply expressive and powerfully communicative; each work defines its time and place in unique ways, yet each is timeless and sounds as startlingly fresh today as when the ink was first on the page. 
Bach – Chromatic Fantasy and Fugue, BWV 903 
Bartók – Sonata (1926) 
Beethoven – Sonata in A-flat major, Op.110 
Brahms – Variations on a Theme of Paganini (Books I & II) 
“Fingers will fly!” Robert Taub

Time: 19:00 pre concert talk, 19:30 – 21:30 performance

Musica Viva

Our 2024-25 Musica Viva season celebrates works of the iconic composer Béla Bartók. He was a leading pioneer of exploring music of the people of his native area (now Hungary, Romania and Slovakia) and forging a unique, often intense compositional voice and style that integrated folk elements – particularly dynamic melodic and rhythmic features – into his vibrant and evocative compositions. 
As part of our commemoration of Bartók this season – the 80th anniversary of his death in 1945 – each of our Musica Viva concerts features a pivotal work. His Piano Sonata, String Quartet No. 3, String Quartet no. 6, and Music for Strings, Percussion and Celesta will all be performed by leading artists. 
We invite you to join us for this exciting and unique celebration of a master of the 20th century, one whose works withstand all tests of time and highlight the importance of “home” as a defining stylistic concept.
