A CELEBRATION of Mozart will be coming to Norden Farm later this month.
The Maidenhead arts centre will be marking the birthday with a concert featuring some of his most famous work.
It’s easier than baking a cake and putting 256 candles on it.
For the event, St John’s Chamber Orchestra perform a programme of the composer’s work, conducted by Nigel Wilkinson. They are joined by George Fu and Katie Mazur.
George Fu is an American pianist and composer. George performs regularly as a soloist, recitalist, and chamber musician in venues around the world.
George has been praised for his performances of distinctive intelligence, sensitivity and virtuosity.
He has performed as a soloist with orchestras such as the National Symphony Orchestra, Baltimore Symphony Orchestra and North Carolina Symphony. He has appeared at international venues such as the Konzerthaus Berlin, Kennedy Center, New York’s Carnegie Hall and Wigmore Hall in London.
Katie Mazur is a violinist at the Royal College of Music. She has played with various orchestras including at the International Music Festival in Malta, The International Music Festival in the Lake District and with The National Youth Orchestra.
The concert’s programme includes Mozart’s final, poetic concerto; one of the most sparkling of the violin concertos; and a rare outing for Symphony No.27.
The annual Mozart Birthday Concert takes place at Norden Farm Centre for the Arts on Saturday, January 29, at 8pm.
The concert is also being livestreamed.
Tickets are £18, £16.50 concessions and £5 under 16s. A live stream ticket: £18 per household.
