Two Piano Recitals on Structure, Memory, and Collapse.

The programme explores composers working at the edge of inherited musical forms, where dance rhythms become unstable, memory fragments, and fantasy begins to overtake structure. Through works by Beethoven, Berg, Ravel, George Benjamin, Chopin, and Schubert, the recital traces a lineage from classical order toward psychological and sonic dissolution.
