Jonathan Powell (piano): Scriabin and Rachmaninov

In the first of three concerts given by featured artist Jonathan Powell across the season that focus on 19th and 20th century Russian repertoire, Scriabin’s transcendental 10th sonata and Rachmaninov’s well-loved 2nd sonata are heard alongside other substantial works by Stanchinsky and Blumenfeld composed in the same 1912-1913 time frame, as well as works by Conus and Catoire
