CLASSICAL music lovers are in for a treat this evening, June 15 as the KZN Philharmonic Orchestra will be performing Rachmaninoff’s iconic Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini.
Interestingly, the piece was adapted into the theme of the movie, Groundhog Day, which tells the story of a self-centred weatherman (Bill Murray) who finds his day running on repeat until he makes better life choices.
The KZN Philharmonic Orchestra Winter Season Concert takes place at 19:00 in the Playhouse Opera with an open rehearsal at 22:00.
The evening’s soloist is Bulgarian virtuoso Emmanuel Ivanov on piano.
