Piano genius Stephen Hough returns to Hong Kong with a specially-devised solo recital that explores every side of his artistic personality: thinker, communicator and supreme virtuoso. This new recital programme focuses on Debussy, commemorating the 100th anniversary of the composer’s death. Cleverly paired with Schumann and Beethoven, this programme explores the radical nature of Debussy’s music. It is a programme full of depth and contrast.
