(Andrew
Warburton)
The UKZN School of Arts, Discipline of
Music presents a red letter event at Howard College Theatre on August 24, 2018.
Warburton, the University’s Lecturer in Piano, Programme Leader Opera Studio
and Western Classical Performance, gives his long-awaited PHD recital,
performing an epic programme of concert show-stoppers. This includes a group of
late Beethoven masterworks, the Bagatelles Op 126 and the profoundly beautiful
Piano Sonata No. 30 in E major, Opus 109.
This will be followed by Ravel’s Sonatine
and Alborado del gracioso, the fourth movement from his powerfully poetic and
vividly descriptive five-movement piano suite, Miroirs.
The evening climaxes with the barn-storming
Allegro de concierto by Enrique Granados, the bravura showpiece the Spanish
composer submitted for a composition competition of the Royal Conservatory in
Madrid in 1903.
Admission is free to this not-to-be-missed
event, which starts at 19h30 in Howard College Theatre. For more information
