Messiaen Vingt Regards sur l’Enfant-Jésus

A unique chance to hear one of the pinnacles of the piano repertoire, performed by world-renowned pianist and composer Rolf Hind in the transcendent space of Durham Cathedral.

Messiaen’s Vingt Regards sur l’Enfant-Jésus, composed in 1944, is a suite of twenty pieces for solo piano meditating on the infancy of Jesus. Lasting two hours, it is a true tour-de-force, drawing an astonishing variety of harmonic colour and richness from the piano in music of extreme virtuosity and spiritual depth. Rarely performed in its entirety, the cycle is one of Messiaen’s greatest achievements, and Rolf Hind one of its leading modern interpreters.

Presented in association with Durham Cathedral.
