Event Info

“My universe will be the heart and soul” declared Chopin, and even at its most entertaining, his music always has deeper, darker secrets to share. Today, Llŷr Williams enters a world where tragedy and joy balance on a knife-edge and where beauty and brilliance go hand in hand, as he brings all his “exquisite finesse” to some of Chopin’s most ambitious – and thrilling – masterpieces.
