We went to an astonishing concert on the top floor of the Ragged School Museum: boiling hot, windows open, the sound of motorbikes and seagulls competing with the most sublime performances of Schubert’s piano music – Four Impromptus played by Samson Troy, Six Moments Musicaux by Pavel Kolesnikov and, most memorable of all, Three Klavierstücke played by Elisabeth Leonskaja, a fellow Russian, born in Tbilisi in 1945, left Russia for Vienna in 1978.  It was incredibly intense.
