The 24th Singapore International Piano Festival presents Fantasies & Memories, celebrating the vast creative resources of the great composers for the piano, whether bringing whimsy and imagination to the seemingly free-form fantasy, or recasting old forms and existing works into something different, or documenting highly-personal memories, impressions and experiences. A nostalgic, emotional and uplifting musical journey made all the richer with illuminating insights from four internationally-renowned virtuoso pianists!
Turkish pianist and composer Hüseyin Sermet's thirty-year career reflects his wide-ranging musical interests and intensely personal vision, encompassing a large and eclectic repertoire and pianistic versatility. Sermet has given solo recitals at major series and venues worldwide, and is a devoted mentor of young talent, highly regarded for his many appearances in Japan. His numerous recordings have also won major international prizes.
