Alderley Edge Methodist Church will be hosting the final lunchtime concert of the current season on Wednesday, 15th June.
Pianists Egle Sarmaviciute and Yulia Vershinina, both on postgraduate courses at the Royal Northern College of Music, will be performing as the Albireo Piano Duo.
They will start their recital with piano duets by Mozart and Brahms then Egle Sarmaviciute will take to the stage as a solo performer in Chopin's Sonata Op 35 No 2 in B flat minor, and the 'Suite De Danzas Criollas' by Alberto Ginastero.
Longstanding friends, Egle Sarmaviciute and Yulia Vershinina, formed the Albireo Piano Duo while they were doing postgraduate degrees at the Royal Northern College of Music. Their debut performance at the RNCM Chamber Music Festival was shortly followed by winning the RNCM Piano Duo Prize.
They have also competed in the prestigious Chris Rowland Prize and were invited to perform the integral S. Prokofiev's Cinderella Suite for an evening recital in the RNCM Concert Hall as part of the Keyboard Festival Highlights in June, 2015.
Jean Walker said "Both pianists relish in an active performing career as soloists and chamber musicians. Egle and Yulia share a versatile technique, an expressive and rich sound palette and an idealistic vision of Music."
Light lunches will be served from 12 noon and the recital commences at 1pm.
Admission is by programme available at the door, price £5.00.
Alderley Edge Methodist Church's 13th Lunchtime Concert Season will commence on 21st September featuring Students from Chetham's School of Music. The concerts will be held on the third Wednesday of the month from September to June (excluding December).
