(Andrew
Warburton)
The School of Arts: MUSIC at the University
of KwaZulu-Natal will present acclaimed South African concert pianist Andrew
Warburton in a recital of Spanish piano works by composers such as Isaac
Albeniz and Enrique Granados.
These composers were both virtuoso pianists
(Albeniz having studied with Liszt) and their works explore the vibrant
melodies and rhythms of their native land. Also featured and discussed will be
the great influence that Spanish music has had on composers from other
countries, most notably the French composer Maurice Ravel. Highlights of this
recital will be performances of Ravel’s Alborada
del gracioso and the equally virtuosic Allegro
de concierto by Granados.
The concert will take place tomorrow (April
15) from 12h15 to 13h00 in Howard College Theatre at UKZN. Entrance is free. For
