Rachmaninoff’s most famous piano concerto – let us show you why!

“Here, time becomes space…” Wagner’s Parsifal is a musical journey into sheer beauty, a world of sound so beautiful that it sends shivers down the spine. It’s an incredible way to follow the artistry of Jeneba Kanneh-Mason: the young British piano star who creates her own special kind of magic. Believe us, when she plays Rachmaninoff’s best-loved concerto, it’ll be much more than just a brief encounter…
