CONCERT BY HENRY ROCHE
at Hammerwood Park
East Grinstead Sussex

Moscheles was a pupil and friend of Beethoven and a teacher of Mendelssohn. Henry Roche, recently retired as Director of Music of the Royal Ballet, is Moscheles' great great grandson . . . so music clearly runs in the genes. 

He is performing a luscious programme including two works by Moscheles on a piano tuned in the spirit of 18th and 19th century unequal temperament, a "well temperament" such as that which Bach would have been writing for.

Impromptu in F minor, op.142 / D939 no.1..............................Schubert
2 Preludes from op.28 (no.15 in Db, no,19 in Eb)..................Chopin
Etude in Bb minor. op.104 no.4................................................Mendelssohn
Four Concert Studies op.111....................................................Moscheles
                *        *       *       *        *       *
2 Etudes (op.70 no.11 in Bb minor, op.95 n.7 in G)................Moscheles
