TEREZIE FIALOVÁ (Olga Scheps)

Venue: Zlín Congress Centre  |  Organizer: Filharmonie Bohuslava Martinů, o.p.s.  | 

Our advertised programme for 28th February 2023 featured a piano recital by the eminent soloist Olga Scheps, who captivated concert-goers here in Zlín last year with her performance at the Harmonia Moraviae concert. We regret to announce, however, that Ms Scheps is not able to play in this concert as she is shortly to become a mother, which all of us will surely understand.

The concert in February will still go ahead, however, with a recital by the outstanding pianist Terezie Fialová featuring works by Leoš Janáček, Pēteris Vasks, Ludwig van Beethoven and  Domenico Scarlatti.
