Melbourne Recital Centre: Andrea Lam – Sad Piano

18 April @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm AEST

Hailed as a ‘real talent’ by the Wall Street Journal, Australian pianist Andrea Lam makes a stunning return to the stage following two decades in New York. Having performed with leading orchestras including the Hong Kong Philharmonic and San Francisco Ballet Orchestra, Andrea’s pianism is a hypnotic blend of flawless technique, spirited eloquence, and sensitivity.

The term ‘sad piano’ ranks among the most searched keywords on streaming platforms for solo piano music. Performing Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata and Chopin’s Nocturne in C sharp minor, Op. Posth., Andrea breathes new life into what is considered the foundational works of the repertoire. Melancholic, yet simultaneously comforting and uplifting, these masterpieces resonate deeply within one’s soul–solidifying their status as enduring classics.

Joined by one of Australia’s leading contemporary composers, Matthew Hindson’s meditative ‘Sad Piano Pieces,’ is a beautiful and moving antidote to the frustrations, fleeting moods, and unexpected joy of everyday life. In the skilful hands of Andrea Lam, experience a soul-restoring hour of sublime piano in this intimate Salon experience.
