Patrick Hemmerlé piano
Patrick Hemmerlé is a French pianist based in England. He has gained recognition as a performer, as a recording artist, and is the artistic director of the Intimate Engagements series at Clare hall, Cambridge. He has a wide repertoire that comprises many works by lesser known composers, whom he likes to introduce to his audiences, alongside works by established masters. This programme for this concert does exactly this, by juxtaposing sonatas from the 18th and 20th century, which have in common an elegance, playfulness, and lightness of spirit, and putting Medtner and Kapustin Sonatas alongside those of Mozart and Beethoven.

“To tell a story. To move an audience”: this sums up Eva Zavaro’s mission, which she aims to fulfil whenever she gets onto the most prominent concert podia in the world, from France through the USA all the way to China and Japan. Eva Zavaro was born in Paris in 1995 into a musical family and started playing the violin at the age of five. When she was twelve she won the Vatelot-Rampal Competition in Paris and two years later she had a debut with the London Symphony Orchestra. She now ranks among the most prominent French violinists of her generation. Eva Zavaro plays an italian violin named "Le Bel Inconnu" made by Nicolo Amati and Antonio Stradivari which is generously loaned to her. Her programme for KCMS explores some of the most beautiful music written for the violin and piano.
