Thursday 20th May - Student Showcase Competition
It is with real regret that we have to announce that we are not able to proceed with our Student Showcase concert on Tuesday 20th May. The continuing Covid crisis has made life very difficult for students at the university. Students are finding that it is difficult to rehearse with accompanists and prepare for their concerts and additionally the university has had to work remotely with its students for many weeks. Whilst we have had a number of auditions using video, there are simply not enough of them to make a proper event.
On Tuesday 11th May Angelina Kopyrina, CMS Liaison Laura Litchie's PhD student will be playing Rachmaninov Piano sonatas 1 & 2 in the University Chapel. This will be recorded and the stream will be available to members and friends. Her subsequent lecture recital on Thursday 13th explaining the history and origins of the pieces - as she has researched them and had access to the original manuscripts in the Glinka Museum in Russia, will be live streamed. Further details & links will be available on this website and sent to members and friends in due course.
We are hopeful that our scheduled programme of events will re-commence as planned on 9th June with Tanya Ursova and Anna Gorbachyova, preceded at 7.15pm by the AGM. Further details will appear on this website
