International Concert Series 2024-25
Described as a pianist who "plays with the confidence of one fully immersed in the music of our time" (Fanfare) and who "...plays with scrupulous attention to every technical challenge and mood swing" (The Independent), Irish pianist Mary Dullea has built an enviable career, specialising in an expansive repertoire covering the standard piano literature as well as an ever-increasing amount of 20th- and 21st- century compositions, many of which are dedicated to her. To mark the awarding of a Professorship at Royal Holloway University University of London, we are pleased to showcase our very own Director of Music Performance, Prof. Mary Dullea, for an evening of music from Clara Schumann to the present day.
This event is presented as part of the International Concert Series 2024-25 at Royal Holloway.
