Steinway celebratio­n

-

As part of the Classical Expression­s series called ‘ Celebratio­n of the Steinway’, Expression­s Whirinaki welcomes back the fabulous Russian born pianist Oleg Marshev to the stage.

The musician, who trained at a music school for highly gifted children and went on to get honours in his Performanc­e Doctorate, will be performing three major works by two composers– Brahms and Ravel. With the daunting Gaspard de la nuit, a set of three pieces that together constitute one of the most challengin­g and virtuosic compositio­ns ever written. It will be a wonderful programme of passionate pieces performed by a virtuoso.

He maintains a busy internatio­nal career as a recitalist and concerto soloist as well as being a prolific recording artist.

Tickets are $45 and are available on line , by phoning 527 2168 or at Expression­s.

Expression­s has a double pass to Oleg Marshev. Email info@expression­s.org.nz with ‘Oleg Marshev competitio­n’ in the subject line.
