MONTVILLE’s Lucas Parklands will launch its classical music season with the ‘Long Weekend of Music,’ featuring pianist Berta Brozgul and cellist Sam Lucas in late-March. The duo, known for their artistic partnership, will perform three concerts from March 22 to March 24 at the private Montville auditorium.
Berta, based in Melbourne, and Sam, now residing in Germany, will present diverse musical programs over the three day program, including works by Bach, Tchaikovsky, Rachmaninov, Hindemith, Schumann, Grieg, and more.
The repertoire includes the Grieg cello sonata, which holds sentimental value as their first collaboration, as well as new pieces like the Ducros ‘encore’ and the Hindemith fantasy piece. Sam, performing some of his favourite pieces; Grieg Cello Sonata and Elgar Cello Concerto, said he was looking forward to returning to play in his home town.
“To perform in Australia is always great as well, especially if I get to tie in some performances at Lucas Parklands, my home,” he explained.
