Music Matinee Newsletter April 3, 2025

We all greatly enjoyed our concert in April and thank Christelise and Meredith for their great curation as well as their exemplary harmony in presenting such a wonderful array of work.

 After all that excitement it is our pleasure to welcome back our friend Berta Brozgul to once again give us a taste of her wonderful skills on the Scots‘ piano. Tuesday April 15th at 1.00 at The Scots’ Church ( please be seated by 12.45 if possible).

Having studied in Salzburg it is appropriate that Berta will start with Mozart Rondo in A Minor.

She will then play two Chopin pieces, firstly Nocturne in C Minor Op 48 then his Ballad No 4 Op 52 considered a high water mark in his composing career. Written in later life it shows all his skills and life experience.

 An Alexander Scriabin piece follows - Sonata No 4 Op30 consisting of two movements.

 Finishing with Frederick Mompou ‘s Variation on a Theme by Chopin. This lovely piece of music is based on Chopin’s Prelude in A Major Op 27 No 7 just beautiful. 

Thank you Berta it is always a delight to welcome you to Music Matinee. 

We would remind you Berta’s Bio and concert details are on our website.
