(Elena
Kerimova, Liezl-Maret Jacobs & Boris Kerimov)
It was a great pleasure to hear these three
highly accomplished musicians performing together. (Review by Barbara
Trofimczyk)
For their concert last week on September 4,
2018, at the Durban Jewish Centre the Friends of Music presented a performance
by the Siberian Trio featuring Liezl-Maret Jacobs (piano), Elena Kerimova
(violin) and Boris Kerimov (cello)
It is not often that Durban music lovers
get the opportunity to experience chamber music played live by artists of this
calibre, and it was a great pleasure to hear these three highly accomplished
musicians performing together.
It was a well thought-out, all-Beethoven programme
varied in its combination of instruments, and including both well-known and lesser-known
works, and as such was full of musical interest.
Special mention must be made of Ms Jacob’s
impressive piano technique and subtle attention to expressive dynamic detail
that complemented perfectly the lyrical quality of the strings. - Barbara
