It’s become a tradition for Gordon to re-start the recitals after the Christmas break, and this year he does so with a wide-ranging programme, beginning and ending in Italy. Lighter English music is well represented with Whitlock’s virtuosic Divertimento and the Elfentanz of Bernard Johnson – a good friend and colleague of Hollins – as well as Romantic masterpieces by Mendelssohn and Rheinberger.
