Piano Showcase Wednesday 23 May 2018 at 18h00 at Jazzcentre
The Centre for Jazz and Popular Music
proudly presents the UKZN Jazz Piano Showcase on Wednesday 23 May 2018 at
18:00.
In the wake of a hugely successful Piano Passions concert that featured
prominent UKZN jazz piano alumni and their teacher, Prof Darius Brubeck, you
are invited to a concert featuring young jazz piano students who are successors
to this illustrious legacy. It is an opportunity to hear phenomenal talent, youthful
energy and imagination that is fuelled by everything contemporary in a stage of
relative infancy.
The UKZN jazz piano faculty is particularly
excited by the current crop of students and is experiencing what feels like an
avalanche of talent. The concert will feature a selection of students from 1st,
2nd and 3rd year and the program will comprise original
compositions, jazz standards and arrangements and mashups of various kinds. The
piano students are too numerous to feature in one concert, so a 2nd
concert has been arranged for the Jazzy Rainbow on Thursday, June 7th.
We are also proud to launch our partnership
with local music instrument retail chain, Musician’s Gearzone, who have kindly
sponsored product awards to participating pianists. The sponsorship will extend
to the rest of the student showcase concerts scheduled during the course of the
year.
This concert will be a part of series of
instrumental showcases that will ran over the course of the year to fundraise
for the Ronnie Madonsela Scholarship. It will be followed by the bass showcase
on Wednesday 30 May 2018.
Join us at The Centre for Jazz and Popular
music (CJPM), Level 2, Shepstone Building at UKZN Howard College Campus on
