Sunderland Pianoforte Society Announces New Season 2011-2012

The new season will celebrate the 200th anniversary of Franz Liszt’s birthday and the 50th anniversary of the death of the great English composer John Ireland.

We have international stars, piano competition winners, and brilliant young newcomers.  Most of the great piano composers are represented throughout the season and there will be much excitement in the virtuoso performances.

The committee has decided to maintain the subscription price for all seven recitals at £55, ticket prices at £11 (on the door) and £5 for full time students and ub40s.

All  recitals are on a Tuesday  evening and start  at  7.15p.m.
