Simon Crawford-Phillips and Philip Moore occupy a unique position amongst piano duos: established chamber musicians in their own right yet since 1995 they have devoted thousands of hours to this most exacting of disciplines, giving them extraordinary musical empathy. Over the years winning many awards, performing and broadcasting across the globe and at all the major UK festivals including the BBC Proms. This popular progamme starts with Mozart, a piece that the composer may have played himself with his sister Nannerl, then music from Tchaikovsky’s magical ballet for the Russian Imperial stage The Nutcracker Suite, and a joyous conclusion with Dvořák’s Slavonic Dances featuring the folk music of his native Bohemia.
