Award-winning one handed concert pianist Nicholas McCarthy will mark his debut at the Royal Albert Hall's Elgar room with an intimate concert of music from war, marking the 1914 centenary on Remembrance Sunday.

This concert is a poignant culmination of Nicholas's dedication to one handed piano music born of war, with great works including music from Scriabin, Frank Bridge with rare arrangements by Wittgenstein, and Nicholas' own transcription of Roses of Picardy and Keep the Home Fires Burning.

"His amazing display of prowess, stamina and determined energy was nothing but dazzling." The Times, Malta
