Ben Schoeman in Recital at the Woordfees 2016, KykNet Endler Hall, Stellenbosch

South African pianist Ben Schoeman gives a solo recital at the Endler Hall in Stellenbosch. His programme centres on the music of Robert Schumann (1810-1856). Two major works of this great Romantic composer will be included in the programme: the Humoreske (Op. 20) and the Etudes Symphoniques (op. 13). Schoeman will also pay tribute to the eminent South African composer, Arnold van Wyk (1916-1983), whose centenary is celebrated this year. Two of Van Wyk’s piano works will be performed: Ricordanza (1973-1979) and Pastorale e Cappriccio (1948, rev. 1955).
