Music
Lucy Parham / Sir Simon Russell Beale
A nostalgic, slow-burn chamber music night.
Claude Debussy, one of the most innovative composers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, drew inspiration from diverse global cultures and experienced a complex emotional life. His journey is explored in Rêverie, a Composer Portrait scripted by pianist Lucy Parham. The performance follows Debussy's life through a personal journal, spanning from his early success in 1885 to his death in 1918. The narrative is illustrated with solo piano works including Clair de lune, The Girl with the Flaxen Hair, Jardins sous la pluie, and L’isle joyeuse.
