The Master's Musical Recital

 

Last night at Merchant Taylors' Hall, we hosted our first Master's Musical Recital which was a great success, and was thoroughly enjoyed by all who attended!  We were very pleased to welcome Mr Ben Schoeman, a very talented pianist, who is currently studying at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama.  Guests were entertained with wonderful musical pieces from Beethoven, Rachmaninov, Debussy and Liszt. 

 The Master had a wonderful evening and commented on the lovely atmosphere in our beautiful Drawing Room and the delicious food that our Catering team created.

 

Following the success of our first recital, we are now looking forward to our second Musical Recital, which is taking place on Monday 29th April where we will be welcoming British pianist Mr Ashley Fripp.  Ashley has given solo and concerto performances in many of the most prestigious venues throughout the UK, such as the Royal Festival Hall, as well as recent international invitations which have taken him throughout  Germany, China, the Netherlands and the USA.
