Chopin composed wonderfully melodic music for solo piano, which is why it is still so popular today.  This is the first of six concerts featuring Chopin that Tim will perform with Music in the Round over the next few seasons. Sit back and enjoy…   

“Tim Horton’s unaffected, heartfelt playing is perfectly judged.” The Arts Desk
