6 May 2015

A PIANO recital by acclaimed American pianist Gustavo Romero is being performed in Down Cathedral next Sunday.

The recital will feature Beethoven’s ‘Moonlight’ Sonata and Schubert’s ‘Wanderer’ Fantasia.

Gustavo Romero has been described as “a pianist of genius” ’ by The Washington Post. 

A Los Angeles Times review also reads: “The playing is authoritative, incontrovertibly Beethovenian in recreating the composer’s style, technically immaculate and compelling in the extreme.”

The recital on May 17 starts at 8pm. Admission is £10 for adults and £5 for students and children.

Proceeds are in aid of the Down Cathedral Organ Enhancement and Refurbishment Appeal.
