ANDREAS STAIER – ALEXANDER MELNIKOV

Franz Schubert was fond of writing for piano four hands: the genre fulfilled his ideal of shared musical enjoyment. Two remarkable performers, well-known to audiences at Bourgie Hall, team up on the Érard piano. They offer a selection of the great Viennese composer’s works for piano four hands, including the famous Fantasia in F minor. An ideal opportunity to hear this music as Schubert himself did!
