Pizza Express Live has announced the line-up for its annual Steinway 2-Piano Festival at the Dean Street venue.
This is a fascinating list of piano pairings. Probably the hottest ticket is the closing night with Emmet Cohen and Danny Grissett. I vividly remember hearing Emmet Cohen in a trio led by his mentor Christian McBride in 2017 (REVIEW), but since then his “Emmet’s Place” videos became first a lockdown sensation, and then an institution: they have now clocked up nearly 22m YouTube views.
