Australian, London-based pianist Piers Lane returns to New Zealand to perform the complete cycle of Frédéric Chopin’s beloved nocturnes.

Piers Lane make a welcome return to Aotearoa and presents audiences throughout the country with the rare opportunity to hear all 21 of Chopin’s Nocturnes performed in a single evening. Few pianists take on this challenge, and even fewer do so with the depth and insight that Piers will. Known for his warmth, brilliance, and deep musical insight, Piers brings these exquisite works to life in a way that is both intimate and profound.

“I seek out very deliberately all the poignancy, all the subtle nuances of expression and extraordinary range of emotion they contain and aim at a very particular ‘Chopin’ tone, a sound that sings, but with a certain classical purity.” – Piers Lane
