A Penchant for Pinto
Although he only lived for 20 years, George Frederick Pinto (1785-1806) was referred to as “The English Mozart” by his teacher Salamon and was close friends with John Field and Samuel Wesley, who described him as a “musical genius”. His works are rarely performed today and certainly deserve greater recognition. Jonathan Delbridge will be performing a series of Pinto’s piano music in a series of free live Facebook broadcasts which will be available online from each date.
