THE internationally acclaimed British pianist Mark Bebbington will give a piano recital in the lovely setting of Hellens, Much Marcle on Sunday, September 6 at 3pm.

The programme will comprise some of the best loved works in the piano repertoire: Beethoven’s Appassionata Sonata, four works by Chopin (Barcarolle, Tarantella, a Nocturne and the B flat minor Scherzo), Franck’s Prelude, Chorale and Fugue, John Ireland’s London Pieces and the première of an exciting short work by Malvern-resident composer Derek Smith.

The critical plaudits which have greeted Mark’s performances and recordings have singled him out as a British pianist of the rarest refinement and maturity.

Tickets available from the Orpheus box office 01905 570979 or online at orpheus-events.com. Strawberries and cream are included in the ticket price.

This event is supported by The Gemma Classical Music Trust and The John Ireland Trust.
