Olde'n'New Recitals in Association with The Order of St. John
Dear Music Friends,
Well the Luca Ciarla quartet was utterly unforgetable. To quote a member of the audience (my darling wife who is very critical)
" What a musical trip to heaven!!!! thats how I would describe last nights recital . Once in a lifetime. Thank you for getting it together, for all those who missed it ... sorry for you!!!!!!!! "
Thank you to the Quartet and to all those who came to enjoy their music.
So don't miss the second recital in July which features one of South Africa's top pianists and a personal favourite. I am delighted to present
Michael will be playing some solo pieces amongst which :- three movements for Solo Piano of Petrushka by Igor Stravinski.
Michael tells me he is loving working on this astounding piece of work and is itching to perform it for us. The music from Petrushka ( the ballet) is a real crowd pleaser full of rhythmic and melodic surprise and invention. And very Russian in flavour.
Michael is a charming pianist, highly musical and thoroughly grounded in technique that wafts easily from his hands. In short - I love his playing
Also featured in the programme are duo's from the late Romantics and some contemporary works. The duos will be performed with Violinist, Waldo Alexander.
This will be Waldo's first appearance for Olde'n'New but I have heard him perform many times. He possesses an assured tone and glorious technique and is comfortable with a wide variety of repertoire.
