Simón Pazos Quintana - piano Dvorák - Selections from Poetic Tone Pictures, Op. 85
Turina - Danzas fantásticas, Op. 22
‘The perfume of the flowers merged with the odour of manzanilla, and from the bottom of raised glasses, full of the incomparable wine, like an incense, rose joy.’
– José Más, La orgía
Spanish-born Australian pianist Simón Pazos Quintana – a recent doctoral graduate of the Elder Conservatorium – is rapidly building a reputation as one of South Australia’s busiest musicians, appearing regularly as a collaborative pianist, chamber musician, recitalist, and concerto soloist. In his debut solo recital in our Elder Hall series, he performs eight vignettes from Dvořák’s rarely-heard Poetic Tone Pictures, Op. 85 (‘the great forgotten cycle of 19th-century piano music’, according to Leif Ove Andsnes) and concludes with a tour of his homeland through Turina’s irresistible Danzas fantásticas, Op. 22.
