Content

Moonlight

Vincenzo Bellini dedicated his last opera to Norma, a Celtic priestess in the archaic male-dominated world of the Druids. Her great aria is Casta Diva, a prayer to the moon, which was the inspiration for Franz Liszt’s exuberant virtuoso piece Réminiscences de Norma. Virtuoso pianist Kristina Miller plays the fantasy as part of a programme that is apparently steeped in moonlight, from Claude Debussy’s Clair de Lune to jazz standards. 

Programme

Music by Johann Sebastian Bach, Sergei Rachmaninow (Sonata No. 2 in b flat minor), Claude Debussy (Clair de Lune), Franz Liszt (Réminiscences de Norma), Oscar Peterson (Duke Ellington Medley / Back to Indiana) a. o.
