Solo Recital After winning the prestigous Norwegian Nils Larsen debut grant, it is with great pleasure that we present this late summer evening concert with pianist Thormod Rønning Kvam in the beautiful St James’s Piccadilly.
"It is exceptional to witness a series of performancesof such consistent excellence as this gifted artist possesses (...) One hopes to hear this most gifted artist in London again soon." — The Grieg Journal, vol. 17 (2024)
Considered one of the most innovative and exciting Scandinavian musicians of his generation, Thormod will be taking us on a musical journey inspired by nature: From Robert Schumann’s evocative Waldszenen, through Leoš Janáček’s atmospheric On an Overgrown Path to his native Edvard Grieg’s monumental Ballade, this will be an interesting and varied concert programme for both new and experienced listeners. Scroll past the photo for full programme details.
A personal message from Thormod:
I am thrilled to be returning to St James’s Piccadilly on 6th September, having very fond memories from my previous recital there back in 2017 when I was a student at the Royal Academy of Music. The programme consists of some of my absolute favourite music — and I really cannot wait to share it all with you!
