On Friday 16th November, KEHS presented the annual lunchtime recital at the Barber Concert Hall in the Barber Institute of Fine Arts at the University of Birmingham. The recital began with a powerful performance by Renee, Daniel, Enoch and Lauren who played the opening movement (Allegro molto moderato) of Fauré’s Piano Quartet in C minor, op.15. Rosy then wowed the audience with her performances of Mozart’s “È amore un ladroncello” from Così fan Tutte, Donizetti’s “La Conocchia”, Bellini’s “Il fervido desiderio” and Frank Bridge’s “Go Not, Happy Day”. Jessica, Jiaqi, Junias, Mark and Naomi concluded the recital, creating a scintillating atmosphere with their interpretation of the Allegro from Piano Quintet op. 1 no.1 by Dohnányi. A huge congratulations and thanks to all students from both schools who gave such professional and inspiring performances
