By Mark Damisch from the USA
With Katherine and Alexandra Damisch and Sarah Koulogeorge

A practising lawyer, Mark Damisch has performed all over the world for charities and to help people "learn from each other's differences." He is accompanied on this tour by his daughters and niece

He will play from Chopin's Ballades and Etudes; Debussy's Golliwog's Cakewalk, inspired by the dance in which slaves parodied white manners through struts and kicks; and works by Aaron Copland: Billy the Kid, which reworks folk melodies to evoke the desolate prairie and lively frontier town; El Salón México, inspired by the "electric sense" of "live contact" with Mexican people; and Rodeo
