ALBION, Mich. – The second of two guest recitals for the Ninth Annual Albion College Piano Festival will feature International Concert Artist, Valerie Tryon. The concert will be held in Goodrich Chapel on the campus of Albion College on October 27 at 7:30pm.
Britain native, Valerie has had international fame since she first appeared on a BBC broadcast around age 12. Since then, she has toured Britain and North America, soloing with many of the leading orchestras. She has a vast repertoire of over sixty concertos and many more chamber pieces. This will be Valerie’s first appearance with the Albion College Piano Festival!
Her program includes some wonderful works. She is opening with the beautiful Chaconne by Bach-Busoni. Busoni transcribed this piece for solo piano from Bach’s violin solo from the Partita No. 2 in D minor. This wonderful, complex, and extremely difficult piece will be a magnificent opening to the concert. She will also be playing pieces by Ravel, John Ireland, and finishing with a suite of pieces by Frederic Chopin, which will leave listeners relaxed and wanting more!
