‘Miniatures’: 12 Original Compositions for Solo Piano

Premiere performance of ‘Miniatures’, 12 exquisite new piano solos from composer Michael A. Grant.

Drawing their inspiration from such classical masters as Mendelssohn, Satie, Brahms and Bach, each beautifully-crafted piece guides the listener on a journey through its own individual sound-world. There is the cheeky playfulness of ‘Compost Frog’; the brooding menace of ‘The Longest Night’; the buoyant optimism of ‘Springs’; the heart-rending tenderness of ‘Parting Waves’… At times joyful and bombastic, at times serene and contemplative, this is a collection that truly covers a vast emotional landscape.

This premiere concert performance will feature all 12 pieces performed by Jack Mitchell Smith, who with 10 fingers and 88 keys will conjure forth a dazzling spectrum of musical colours. There will also be accompanying commentary from the composer, who will shed light on the inspirations and nuances behind each composition.
