Four women musicians will join forces to present the Maltese public a concert of Romantic classical music with a difference. The music that will be presented will include the songs of two women composers: the American Amy Beach and the Swede Valborg Aulin, also a contemporary of Beach. The songs will be performed by renowned soprano Andriana Yordanova with the international pianist Julia Miller on the piano. Together with flutist Clara Galea, Julia Miller will also perform the exquisite ‘Undine’ sonata for Piano and Flute (op. 167) of Carl Reinecke. This sonata is considered one of the major works that exposes the versatility of flute written in the nineteenth century. The concert will end with Johannes Brahms’ well known Sonata for Piano and Violin n. 3 in d minor, played by violinist Agnieszka Kuzma with Julia Miller on the piano. The concert will be at the Malta Society of Arts in Valletta on the 4th June, starting at 6.00PM, and tickets are available from showshappening.com.
