“Alessio Bax is a musician who oozes grace and class, both in his stage manner and in his playing.He is capable of great delicacy, as in his handling of the airy birdsong at the top of the keyboard in Liszt’s St Francoise d’Assise: La predication aux oiseaux attests, as well as power and muscle, shown to thrilling effect in the same composer’s sonata Après une Lecture de Dante which followed and closed the evening. After the Liszt pieces in the second half brought the house down, Bax gave two encores to set the seal of this special recital.“
