Pianist Keval Shah with music that caresses the heart

Keval Shah opens up a selection of classical music from a pianist’s point of view - revealing familiar and unfamiliar works in a new light.

Keval Shah returns to Inside Music with another clutch of musical treats, including a rhythmically incisive performance of a piano piece by Debussy, an insight into the fragmentary world of Jean Sibelius, and a dramatic sunrise with a twist.

Plus a revelatory performance of a famous song by Robert Schumann that takes us to another continent.
