ACCLAIMED TRIO SINE NOMINE TO PLAY AT BH REGIONAL ART GALLERY The beautiful strains of J S Bachs Trio Sonatos for oboe, violin and harpsichord will fill the halls of the gallery on the 24th of January. Gallery Manager Cathy Farry said it was wonderful to have the opportunity to host the trio. “The international trio is one of the headline acts of the Mildura-based Murray River International Music Festival and we are grateful to have the opportunity for the local performance,” Ms Farry said. Journeying from Central America, Italy and the UK, the Trio’s sonata is an Italian born musical form, similar to that of the Italian concerti or to the Violin Sonatas. Born in Guatemala, Claudia Lopez studied violin in country and in Belgium. She has played for numerous orchestras and at festivals throughout Europe and South America and currently resides in Rome where she performs freelance with various groups. Originating from Venice, Gianfranco Bortolato is a prize winning performer, who commenced study of the oboe from the age of eleven. He has performed extensively as an oboe soloist throughout the Americas, Eastern Europe, Australia, the Middle East and across Africa. In 2003, Michele Benuzzi won third prize at the Yamanashi International Harpsichord Competition in Japan. He performs in major festivals in Europe and Asia and founded Arcomelo, a group performing seventeenth and eighteenth-century music, and examining baroque music. Tickets are only $20 or $10 for concession holders and Art Gallery Members. All funds raised by the concert will go towards the Art Restoration Project at the Gallery. Tickets are available from the Gallery at 402 Argent Street, Broken Hill. Tickets will be available on the night.
