ARTIST UPDATE
This event was originally meant to feature Giovanni Sollimi. However, Giovanni Sollima has contracted COVID-19 and will be unable to perform.
The talented Gladys Chua will be performing with Avi Avital instead.
All ticketholders were sent an email regarding this artist update on Tuesday 27 September, 4pm.
For any further queries, please contact the Perth Concert Hall Box Office.
"[Avital is] one of those rare musicians whose scintillating virtuosity is amazing and whose innate musicality creates utterly convincing interpretations."
– The Australian
Musica Viva Australia is pleased to announce Avi Avital will be joined on stage by virtuosic pianist: Gladys Chua in Perth. This artist will do what they love best: collaborate with a perfectly matched artist on a program of great works.
Presenting works by Mozart, de Falla, Bartók and others, the concert skips between the folk traditions which inspired these great composers and the art music that grew from these same traditions. The program also includes Giovanni Sollima’s Prelude for mandolin solo – it will be an enthralling series of concerts.
So come along. Listen to music with world roots brought to local stages. Be part of a musical community as diverse as Australia.
