When Kit Armstrong was only 14, he overcame his mentor Alfred BrendeI s reluctance to take on pupils. Said BrendeI: He played so beautifully that I thought to myseIf, l have to make time for him. It was a performance that reaIly led you from the first to the last note. Soon Armstrong was winning international prizes both as pianist and as composer and was appearing as soloist at some of the world s foremost venues. At the Concertgebouw, Armstrong mesmerized his audience with Bach s monumentaI Goldberg Variations preceded by earlier polyphonic variation masterpieces by WiIliam Byrd, Jan Pieterszoon SweeIinck and John BulI. |
