Steven Osborne OBE is one of Britain’s most treasured musicians with an immense depth of musicality and exceptional refinement of expression across diverse repertoire, be it in Beethoven or Messiaen, Schubert or Ravel, Prokofiev or jazz improvisations. His numerous awards include The Royal Philharmonic Society Instrumentalist of the Year, two BBC Music Magazine Awards and two Gramophone Awards.

Steven’s programme includes three great works for piano. Schumann’s Kinderszenen (Scenes from Childhood) is a touching evocation of childhood. Schubert’s Six Moments musicaux, along with the Impromptus, are probably the most frequently played of his piano music. The Piano sonata, D959, is one of three written in his final year.

“This quietly-spoken, self-questioning Scottish pianist has risen to the top tier of pianists worldwide, and this concert was a reminder of the way he combines relentless perfectionism with surprising wildness.”          The Telegraph
