WEDNESDAY 31 | Germany has produced numerous composers, but perhaps the greatest in music history are the ‘Three Bs’, a phrase coined by 19th century conductor Hans von Bülow to signify the combined brilliance of Bach, Beethoven and Brahms. Representing the baroque, classical and romantic periods respectively, the trio’s finest works will tonight be channelled by award-winning German pianist Gerd Isselhardt, a one-time private pupil of Professor Siegbert Panzer who has been studying Instrumental-Music-Pedagogy at the Peter Cornelius Conservatory of Music in Mainz/Germany since 1999.
WHO: Gerd Isselhardt (piano)
WHAT: Bach, Beethoven and Brahms piano recital
WHERE: Meta House, Sothearos Blvd.
WHEN: 8pm July 31
WHY: The three Bs may be gone, but their music lives on
