This Friday, November 8, 2024 (tonight), the world will
celebrate the 10th World Pianist Day - a day dedicated to pianists,
keyboardists, and everyone involved in playing keyboard instruments. This
international celebration aims to recognise their talent and the profound
impact their music has on people.
This year, pianists in Durban will come together in a
concert to celebrate the life of, and pay tribute to
bassist, Philani Ngidi. He was a central figure in the Durban music scene,.
