International pianist Danilo Mascetti joins the Odeion School of Music on stage

Loading player...
The Odeion School of Music Concert Series kicks off in Bloemfontein with a dive into the past, with The Diabelli Project: this programme recreates the editor Antonio Diabelli’s own biggest project, the publishing of several variations on his own Waltz that led Beethoven to compose his magnificent set of Variations Op. 120. The theme becomes here the very centre of the recital, and during the performance we meet several well-known composers in different stages of their life, from the young Liszt to the then very famous Hummel and Czerny, finishing with the masterwork of the late Beethoven.

Danilo Mascetti is an Italian pianist and fortepianist known for his intense performances and original programming, combining traditional repertoire with lesser known piano works. Equally at home with classical piano and fortepiano, since his debut with Pomeriggi Musicali Orchestra in the prestigious Sala Verdi (Milan), Danilo performs regularly all over Europe.

He joins Yolanda Maartens in the OFM Art Beat to talk about this exciting evening of music taking place on the 14th of March 2024 at 19:00. Details here: https://www.facebook.com/OdeionSchoolofMusic/
