There was a change to the published programme. Maya Ligalina gave a delightful performance of Haydn's Piano Sonata No 52. An opening movement full of vitruosity and humour lead to a beautifully paced slow movement. The final movement was full of colour and vitality. Abigail Sudbury has a voice well matched to both the works of Haydn and Mendelsson. She has a lovely unforced soprano voice and her diction and clarity shone throughout her recital. She was ably accompanied by Youngjin Park. Maya Ingalina returned to the stage to play two of Debussy's Images from Book 2. Lovely limpid playing full of shimmering movement and deftness.
