Olli Mustonen performs piano music by Schumann, Scriabin, Shchedrin and Martinu.

Mary Ann Kennedy presents a recital given by pianist Olli Mustonen at the 2011 Edinburgh International Festival, featuring music by Schumann, Scriabin, Shchedrin and Martinu.

EDINBURGH INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL 2011

Finnish pianist, Olli Mustonen explores a widely colourful array of repertoire from Schumann's fresh and innocent Kinderszenen to the deeply troubled Fantaisie and Toccata by Martinu written while in self-imposed exile during the Second World War. Scriabin's exotic and virtuosic works create another world of shimmering sounds and thrilling fiery brilliance while his fellow Russian, Shchedrin finds his inspiration in the Preludes and Fugues of Shostakovich and Bach.
