SUMMARY:St John's International Piano Series: Mishka Rushdie Momen
DESCRIPTION:St John’s International Piano Series: Mishka Rushdie Momen\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout St John’s International Piano Series: Mishka Rushdie Momen\n\n\n\nBeethoven Piano sonata no.14\, op.27 no.2 ‘Moonlight’ \n\n\n\nBeethoven Piano sonata no.28\, op.101 \n\n\n\nInterval \n\n\n\nBeethoven Piano sonata no.6\, op.10 no.2 \n\n\n\nRavel Miroirs \n\n\n\nMishka Rushdie Momen studied with Dame Imogen Cooper and with Sir András Schiff. She has appeared across the USA and Europe\, last season’s recitals including Wigmore Hall\, Aldeburgh Festival and the re-opening of the Frick Collection\, New York. \n\n\n\nHer programme includes three Beethoven piano sonatas\, from very early to late. She starts in the chronological middle with the lovely ‘Moonlight’ sonata.  \n\n\n\nThe catchy name was added by others: Beethoven himself subtitled the sonata ‘Quasi una fantasia’ and it is a kind of fantasy\, opening with a dreamy adagio\, the melody building to an aching sadness and mystery. \n\n\n\nFor her final piece\, Mishka leaves Beethoven for Ravel. Miroirs is a brilliant impressionistic work\, composed when Ravel had begun to make his mark with the public but was still battling for recognition with entrenched powers at the Paris Conservatoire.  \n\n\n\nEach one of the five movements is dedicated to a friend and fellow member of the avant-garde club Les Apaches. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease see important booking information below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nTicket prices: \n\n\n\nFrom £7.00 to £35.00 \n\n\n\nA fee of £1.50 per transaction applies to bookings for this event across all channels – website\, phone and in-person bookings at the Box Office. The fee is waived for Oxford Playhouse members. \n\n\n\nDates & times: \n\n\n\nThursday 07 May 2026 at 7.30pm \n\n\n\nDoors open at 7.00pm \n\n\n\nRunning time: \n\n\n\n2 hours\, including an interval. \n\n\n\nGood to know: \n\n\n\nPlease note that Mishka has revised her programme. It was originally to be all Beethoven – she is now playing Ravel’s Miroirs in place of Beethoven’s Piano sonata no. 32\, op. 111.
