Martin Roscoe is one of the UK’s best loved pianists. With a distinguished career spanning more than four decades, his enduring popularity and the respect in which he is universally held are built on a deeply thoughtful musicianship and an easy rapport with audiences and fellow musicians.
Tonight he joins Ely Sinfonia to play George Gershwin’s Piano Concerto in F, a piece that the composer himself played at the fi rst performance in 1933. It combines many of the elements of a classical concerto with a gamut of new ideas infl uenced by jazz, then at its height.
Also on the programme are three other major American works: Leonard Bernstein’s popular Overture to Candide, and Aaron Copland’s Appalachian Spring and Quiet City. These are among the most frequently performed works by 20th century American composers – and for good reason!
