$25

Nut Point Centre presents “Hammer and Horsehair” on Sunday 18th September 2016, 7.30 p.m.

Douglas MewsFortepiano

Rober IbellCello

Enjoy superb music-making in a candlelit performance of five virtuosic works for fortepiano and cello.  Two well-known New Zealand musicians perform a programme of Classical and early Romantic pieces on period instruments, transporting the audience to another place and time.

Hammers and Horsehair presents a rich and varied programme.  The virtuosity of Breval’s Sonata in G and Romberg’s Grand Sonata in E-flat major is complemented by one of Mozart’s best-loved Piano Sonatas, the playful and charming Sonata in C K330.  Two works by Beethoven, his witty set of Twelve Variations on “Ein Madchen oder Weibchen” and the Sonata for Piano and Cello Op. 5 No. 1, open and close the concert.

Concert and light supper = $25.00 per person

To book: telephone 342 1033
