Rachmaninoff's 150th Birthday Piano Bash

ABOUT

Sergei Rachmaninoff’s 150th birthday is being celebrated worldwide this year. His piano concertos are always popular and regularly appear on orchestra programmes, despite them being a challenge for any pianist. Schumann, Prins and De Jager build on 2022’s family affair Bach (to a) Blast! with this one-off performance Lucretia Sikwebu of Rachmaninoff’s Scherzo in D minor, Piano Concerto No. 2 and the Rhapsody on a theme by Paganini.

Sergei Rachmaninoff se 150ste verjaar­sdag word vanjaar wêreldwyd gevier. Sy klavierkonserte is immergewild en verskyn gereeld op orkesprogramme, hoewel dit vir enige pianis ’n uitdaging en ’n toets is. Schumann, Prins en De Jager bou voort op 2022 se familie­affêre Bach (to a) Blast! met hierdie eenmalige vertoning van Rachmaninoff se Scherzo in D-mineur, Klavierkonsert Nr. 2 en die Rapsodie op ’n tema van Paganini in samewerking met die Rachmaninoff (woord)fees orkes.
