Bobby Mitchell

‘Nature is a temple with animated pillars, which sometimes raise their voices in confusion,’ wrote Baudelaire in his sonnet Correspondances. This will be the theme of a new recital by pianist Bobby Mitchell.

A panorama of memories of sacred places, natural or man-made. From the organ-like water in the fountains of the Villa d'Este as heard by Liszt, to the blazing fire temple of Skrjabin. What Schumann heard in the deep forest, and the mythological scenes that Szymanowski saw in the reliefs of Greek temples in Selinunte, Sicily.
