BBC Radio 3 Rush-Hour Concert: Simone Dinnerstein

,LSO St Luke's
Simone Dinnerstein

Simone Dinnerstein, a pianist praised by The Independent for her ‘majestic originality of vision’, concludes this series of Artist Spotlight recitals.

To launch the 2018/19 season, BBC Radio 3 places the spotlight on four leading soloists, introducing us to their musical worlds and inspirations through a series of concerts. American pianist Simone Dinnerstein – who shot to fame a decade ago with her self-funded, critically lauded and entirely distinctive recording of Bach’s Goldberg Variations – concludes the series in this rush-hour concert. She turns to Schubert’s piano works, music of intimacy, warmth and luminous melodic beauty, which Dinnerstein herself describes ‘as if wordless voices were singing textless melodies’.
