Nelson Goerner: Piano Recital

Booking Required

Argentinian pianist Nelson Goerner offers an intimate piano recital exploring lyricism and drama across three distinct Romantic and Classical landscapes. The programme juxtaposes Leoš Janáček’s evocative In the Mists, Robert Schumann’s tender Kinderszenen Op. 15 alongside his fiery Toccata Op. 7, and Ludwig van Beethoven’s Variations on a Waltz by Diabelli Op. 120. Goerner’s refined touch and structural clarity reveal contrasts between introspective miniatures and virtuosic outbursts, inviting close listening and emotional immersion.
