Waikanae Music Society is proud to present the acclaimed pianist Oleg Marshev, making his fourth visit to Waikanae. Born in the Azerbaijani capital of Baku, he studied at the Moscow Conservatory, graduating in 1988 and winning the Pilar Bayona International Piano Competition in Zaragoza. In 1990 he took the Gold Medal at the AMSA World Piano Competition of Cincinnati.
Many other illustrious competition successes followed, including four first prizes, confirming his reputation as one of the most talented Russian pianists of his generation. In 1991, Oleg made his New York debut at the Lincoln Center, and he has performed regularly around the world since then.
Resident in Italy, he gives masterclasses in many different countries and is a Professor at the Anton Bruckner University in Austria. He is a prolific recording artist with more than 45 CDs to his name, all received with widespread critical acclaim by leading international publications.
His fascinating programme called “Dialogue: Chopin and Scriabin” will offer a comparison between these two composers’ approach to similar musical forms. Like Chopin (although fifty years later) Scriabin was primarily a piano composer. His earliest pieces resemble Chopin’s and include genres that Chopin himself employed, such as the waltz, the polonaise, the nocturne and the mazurka.
The concert, in the Waikanae Memorial Hall, starts at 2.30pm. Door sales will be available or tickets can be bought from Waikanae New World or Moby Dickens Books in Paraparaumu Beach, or from the website.
Enquiries are welcome on 04 293 4025 or 04 905 6070.
