Steven Osborne in a piano recital at St John's Smith Square in London. Schubert: Impromptus, D935: No 1; No 4. Plus music by Debussy and Rachmaninov.

Steven Osborne plays piano music by Schubert, Debussy and Rachmaninov at St John's Smith Square, London.

Schubert: Impromptus D935: No. 1 in F minor, No. 4 in F minor

8.15: Interval

Steven Osborne's recital is typically diverse, opening with some of Schubert's song-like impromptus and Debussy pieces that find the composer conjuring up magical images, and finishing with a selection of Rachmaninov's 脡tudes-tableaux, where the most demanding technical tasks are presented in the form of expressive character pieces.

Followed by a glimpse into Adopt a Composer - Making Music's scheme pairing composers with performing groups from around the country.
Tonight, the Quirky Choir of Doncaster works on Anna Braithwaite's Look up Doncaster.
