Nettie Immelman Memorial Concert
2018-05-03

3 May 2018

Odeion

19:30

Legendary piano teacher, Nettie Immelman, passed away in 2011 and the OSM presented the first memorial concert in her honour in 2012. Since then it became an annual event on the OSM concert calendar. For this year’s concert the pianist Nicol Viljoen (Associated Professor at the OSM) will be the performing artist.

Nicol Viljoen is the foremost expert of Schenkerian analysis in South Africa. His training under world-renowned specialists in the United States of America is currently still our country’s most intensive contact with dynamic international developments concerning this highly specialized music-analytical system. His research during the past two decades has focused both on theoretical Schenker studies, and on its application within musical performance practice through structuralist aural analysis. His exceptionally versatile activities as music theorist, concert pianist, chamber musician, jazz pianist, and academic, has greatly contributed to an inclusive vision of music study at the UFS. During 2003, Nicol Viljoen produced the compact disc Franz Schubert/Johannes Brahms (Unfoldings UCD001) together with the violist John Wille. In 2011, he produced his second compact disc, Transcendental Schubert, on the Mukavi label.
