Pianists at Norden Farm 2: Meng Yang Pan
Meng Yang Pan has made several concerto appearances with St John’s Chamber Orchestra.
She makes a welcome return in a solo recital with a stunning virtuoso programme, taking in famous transcriptions, a kaleidoscopic showpiece by Schumann, and Gershwin’s evergreen Rhapsody in Blue. And as with all the recitals in this series, there’s a nod in the direction of Rachmaninov, in the 150th anniversary year of his birth.
