Pierre-Laurent Aimard plays in Tributes to Alfred Brendel at the Barbican
23/1/2026
“Part 3 of the concert did offer something else Brendel would surely have relished: a sequence of piano miniatures, mostly by György Kurtág, played with whimsical humour by Pierre-Laurent Aimard, interwoven among a selection of his own Dadaist-flavoured verse, read stylishly by Harriet Walter.”
