ABOUT
The Marvelous Magdalena de Vries has created a programme of Marimba Music for the Dirk Meerkotter Retrospective
Magdalena de Vries, South Africa’s foremost classical marimbist, explores the textural blends and contrasts between wood and metal by combining exotic percussion instruments (including tuned cowbells and terracotta pots) with her concert marimba in her latest solo programme entitled Textures. The programme features works by South African composers Lise Morrison, Clare Loveday and Kayode Ibaiyo.
The creativity, sense of humor, exuberance and excellence of this artist is perfectly attuned with the art of Dirk Meerkotter.
You will see and hear the art coming from the instrument and exploding from the walls.
