It's a regular event and quite fascinating in its presentation of development through musical education. Jinbo Huang comes regularly to Wesley and I've seen him and the students playing this day over time. This time, Naomi, Daniel, Arabella, Charlie and presumably sons Frank and Charles. They play a range of composers, some obvious and challenging, Chopin and Liszt, some more forgiving, interestingly this time, one very much more theatrical or filmic. Some names were more obscure - Gurlitt, Burgmuller, Yu, Tertu - but even amongst these some themes were well known. Perhaps listeners to ABC Classics would know of them. And the peak of Chopin and Schubert and Liszt, the impromptus and waltzes and that Campanella were a blast and a display of significant chops. So, again, something more than would otherwise be expected.
Naomi Feng, Daniel Zhao, Arabella Lu, Charlie Sanoubane, Frank Huang and Charles Huang are piano students of Jinbo Huang. They performed at Wesley.
