Sign up as a subscriber and get to see classical music superstar free!

The KZN Philharmonic has announced that classical music superstar, Joshua Bell, will perform with the orchestra for one night only on September 1, 2012, at the Durban City Hall. Referred to as the poet of the violin, Joshua Bell’s list of awards, achievements and accolades are too numerous to mention. This is certainly a concert not to be missed!

Those who subscribe to both the Winter and Spring KZNPO seasons will receive a free ticket to this exclusive concert!

The next concert in the KZNPO’s Winter Season takes place on May 24 when the orchestra welcomes back versatile British conductor, Jeremy Silver and his South African-born wife, soprano Sally Silver (formerly Sally June Gain). Ms Silver performs Richard Strauss’s sublimely beautiful Vier letzte Lieder (Four Last Songs). These final works of the great German composer’s entire output, composed in 1948, rank amongst his loveliest and most haunting music. The programme also includes Wagner’s Prelude to Act 1 of Lohengrin and Rachmaninoff’s Symphony No. 2

The concert will take place on May 24 at 19h30 in the Durban City Hall. Booking is at Computicket.(Please note that the rehearsal on May 24 will not be open to the public!)

The KZNPO in association with Friends of Music hold pre-concert talks in the City Hall Supper Room (in the basement) at 18h00. Entrance R10.
