Music Revival presents pianist Christopher Duigan in a
spectacular programme of piano music on October 17 and 19.
This bold selection of dramatic music includes Harmonies du Soir by Franz Liszt, Scherzo No 2 op 31 by Frederic Chopin, and music by
Russian composers Sergei Rachmaninoff and Alexander Scriabin. Central in the
programme is Ludwig van Beethoven's Sonata Opus 57 Appasionata.
Duigan's recent performance of the Beethoven, one of the
composers most intense and dramatic compositions, drew stellar reviews at the
National Arts Festival in Grahamstown. This programme was also presented to a capacity
audience at the Hilton Arts Festival and will be repeated at the Marriott
Classic Music Festival in Franschhoek in October.
