Event information
The Cape Town Concert Series 2025 celebrates 70 years of music-making with a special gala solo recital featuring award-winning pianist George Harliono.
British Indonesian pianist George Harliono was invited to make his first one hour long, solo recital at the age of nine and since then has performed in numerous locations both in the UK, USA, Europe and Asia, appearing at venues such as Wigmore Hall, The Berlin Philharmonie Kammermusiksaal, The Royal Albert Hall and Chicago Symphony Centre. In 2023, he was awarded the Silver Medal at the XVII International Tchaikovsky Competition.
The programme features pieces by Rameau, Chopin (Ballades 1 & 2) Beethoven’s “Moonlight” Sonata, Tchaikovsky, and Stravinsky’s Firebird Suite.
The concert is made possible through a collaboration with the Cape Town Philharmonic Orchestra and all proceeds go towards to the future of the Concert Series.
