Another concert in the ongoing series devoted to Dave Smith's piano music played by the composer. As previously, it takes place at

Bauer + Hieber (= Schotts)
48 Great Marlborough Street
Lindon W1F 7BB

Monday 8th December at 6.30 pm

Tickets on door £8/£5 concs

The work to be played is the 5th Piano Concert (1993-4) subtitled Alla reminiscenza. This is rather different to works heard previously in the series, being a slow-moving single movement (some would label it "post-minimalist") with a duration of c. 1 hour 25 minutes. It relates to the composer's activities in the early 1970s, but  otherwise lacks the element of historical reference often present in his work. It is dedicated to the composer Michael Parsons who turns 70 this year. There is a concert devoted to Parsons' music the previous day (during the afternoon of Sunday 7th December) at

The Warehouse
Theed Street
London SE1
