The first of four programmes from the 1982 Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival. Richard Steinitz, the Artistic Director of the Festival, Introduces part of a recital by the pianist PETER DONOHOE. One of the most remarkable piano recitals that have come my way ... an artist whose multiple virtues of technique, insight and selfless co-operation are matched by a stamina that seems to be inexhaustible.
