JMS PRESENTS ALEXANDER ULLMAN

The Johannesburg Musical Society returns to the Linder Auditorium in 2026 for a series featuring prestigious artists from Spain, Bulgaria, Russia, Azerbaijan, the UK and South Africa. Eight specially curated concerts shine the spotlight squarely on pianists, with a sprinkling of strings. All the artists have won multiple competitions and are highly sought after soloists and chamber musicians.

The season opens on January 18th with British Pianist Alexander Ullman - twice winner of the Liszt International Piano Competition. He will present a programme of works by Liszt and Grieg. This concert is presented in collaboration with the Cape Town Philharmonic Orchestra and the Cape Town Concert Series.

All Concerts take place on Sunday afternoons at 15:00 in the Linder Auditorium, Wits Education Campus, Parktown. There is safe, easy to find parking and on-site refreshments of coffee, tea, wine and snacks.
