About the event
From See Tickets's listing
Treat yourself and your loved ones to an exceptional early evening piano recital in the beautiful candlelit setting of St Giles Cathedral on the Royal Mile in Edinburgh. Featuring renowned concert pianist, Hiroaki Takenouchi, the programme includes Gershwin's masterpiece, Rhapsody In Blue along with other outstanding classical and romantic piano worksFeaturingHiroaki Takenouchi (piano) ProgrammeJ.S. Bach: Capriccio on the Departure of the Beloved Brother, BWV 992 Beethoven: Sonata in E flat, Op.81a "Les Adieux"Chopin: Waltz in A flat, Op.69 No.1 "Valse de l'adieu"Chopin: Etude Op.10 No.3 Gershwin: Rhapsody in BlueHiroaki Takenouchi's curiosity, and a natural penchant for integrity makes his playing and vast repertoire unique amongst his generation of pianists. His love for the music of classical masters - particularly Haydn, Beethoven and Chopin - sits side by side with his passion for the music of Medtner, lesser-known British composers such as Sterndale Bennett and Parry, and the contemporary repertoire. As a soloist, Takenouchi has appeared on many concert platforms including Wigmore Hall, Tokyo Opera City and the South Bank Centre, and has given recitals across Europe and North America. 2022 saw the release of his latest solo disc on French specialist piano label Artalinna, featuring works by Grieg, Medtner and Dupré. Hiroaki is also editor of the published scores of Sherwood's two-piano works (as recorded for Lyrita), now available from Nimbus Music Publishing.

How I list these
Everything here comes from the feeds of the ticket and experience sellers I work with: See Tickets. That's a lot, but it isn't everything on in Edinburgh: venues that sell their own tickets, or sell through sellers whose feeds don't reach me, won't show here yet.
Events are in date order, and a show on several dates appears once, on its first, with how many more there are. Things to do any day start with the seller's own UK picks, then those rated 4.5 or more, guided before self-guided, shared before private, then by rating and price. Every ticket link is an ad: if you buy, the seller may pay me commission, at no cost to you. Commission never changes what's listed or the order.
A price is the seller's lowest for one ticket (or one person, when two book a tour together), as its feed gives it, and I've checked on each seller's own pages what it covers. See Tickets's includes its booking fee, and it adds an order fee to each booking (£1.25 to £4 on the events I checked), which I show beside the price. Where I haven't checked what a seller's price covers, or its feed is more than a day and a half old, I show no price at all.
I don't list resold tickets for football in England and Wales, or for any match in a UEFA or FIFA competition: selling or advertising them without the organiser's permission is a crime (section 166 of the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994). Times are UK times. Events change and sell out, so the seller's page is the final word.
