In later season, Alice will bring the Nightfall recital programs to Europe including Paris’s La Seine Musicale, Vienna Konzerthaus, Munich Prinzregententheater, Birmingham Symphony Hall and Wigmore Hall.
Alice’s latest album Nightfall, featuring works by Satie, Debussy and Ravel, including Gaspard de la Nuit, one of the greatest challenges of piano literature. The album marks ten years that she has been signed as an exclusive recording artist to Deutsche Grammophon. Nightfall takes its inspiration from twilight: the brief, magical time when day meets night, light meets dark. This merging of contrasts is reflected in a programme of works that explores the complex dichotomy existing in every human character.
