About:
“The Venezuelan is a doughty champion of Latin-American music, and her programme of piano pieces reaches below and often jaunty surface to capture the region’s deeper soul. The Venezuelan works by Antonio Estévez and Juan Carlos Núñez are especially captivating, while the Gershwin Three Preludes are a class act.”
Stephen Pettit, Sunday Times Jan 28 2018
“A poet of the piano.” Antonio Estevez
“ Clara Rodriguez provides performances of alluring vivacity allied to that most essential of requisites-CHARM. Highly recommended” Jeremy Nicholas. Gramophone Magazine
“What a treat was in store for the gratifyingly large audience. There was a pianist of rare quality to meet us with grace of demeanour and palpable pleasure in her very special brand of musicianship: Clara Rodríguez; not a newcomer, but one whose return to the Southbank had been rightly anticipated with eagerness by former admirers. And why is she so special? She can and does play softly, with a range of nuance between pianissimo and mezzoforte of rare subtlety, of the kind which makes the music steal upon the ear like vibrations from another world. The evening produced an unforgettable spell of unsullied beauty”
