Wesley Music Centre, Friday 28 September at 7pm
Acclaimed Canberra based Argentinean pianist Marcela Fiorillo presents a recital of music by Argentina’s most eminent composers, Alberto Ginestera and Astor Piazzolla.
These two composers more than any others reflected the musical landscape of Argentina as a whole. Ginestera’s music incorporates folk and gaucho elements as well as the complexities of classical ‘academic music’.
Piazzolla was Ginestera’s student, and the composer who revolutionised tango with his nuevo tango, incorporating jazz, folk and classical music traditions
A not to be missed recital. Bookings through iwannaticket or at the door.
