About this Event
Dreams & Cream Tea: An Intimate Classical Piano Concert
Event Description:
Witness a piano concert like no other, set in the timeless beauty of Bibury Village.
Join pianist and composer Mirana Faiz for an exclusive live performance of DREAMS: the album premiere concert featuring her original piano compositions, set in The Swan Hotel, Bibury.
Following successful premieres in Hong Kong and Japan, Mirana brings her acclaimed solo piano album DREAMS to the UK. Recorded at the legendary Abbey Road Studios, the album showcases her emotionally rich and cinematic compositions. Her piece Whispers of the Journey was nominated for the 2024 Hollywood Independent Music Awards and is currently under consideration for the 68th Grammy Awards (2026) for Best Instrumental Composition. Combining technical mastery with cinematic storytelling, Mirana’s performances invite listeners into immersive musical journeys, where emotion and narrative unfold through every note.
This special indoor concert offers a rare opportunity to experience these works live in an intimate British setting. The programme includes pieces composed specifically for Bibury itself.
With limited seating available, early booking is highly recommended.
About Bibury:
Nestled in the heart of the Cotswolds, Bibury is often hailed as "the most beautiful village in England." With its honey-colored stone cottages and the iconic Arlington Row, originally built in 1380 as a monastic wool store and later converted into weavers' cottages in the 17th century, the village exudes timeless charm. The tranquil River Coln meanders through Bibury, enhancing its picturesque landscape.
Mirana was deeply inspired by the village’s unique atmosphere and historic beauty, which led her to compose a special piece dedicated to Bibury itself, featured as part of the DREAMS album. The village's rich history and natural serenity make it the perfect backdrop for a concert celebrating original piano music.
