Unforgettable Live Events at Wyeside
Sunday 14 September | 3pm
Pianist Sirwan Hariri presents a captivating journey from the refined elegance of late Classicism to the rich emotional depths of Romanticism. This afternoon's programme features works by Beethoven, whose bold innovations laid the groundwork for Romantic expression; Liszt, the virtuosic poet of the piano.
From Beethoven to Liszt

Chopin, with his lyrical intimacy and harmonic nuance; and Schubert, whose poignant melodies and dramatic contrasts reveal the soul of Romanticism. Hariri’s interpretation offers a dynamic exploration of passion, introspection, and transcendence—hallmarks of this golden era in piano literature.
