YOUNG TALENT'S SHORT CONCERTS
Recorder player Paula Pinn performs with harpsichordist Anna Kiskachi as do transverse flautist Natalie Egielmann and Yu Ma (see also open master class).
Please note that the short concerts (about 50 minutes in total) will be performed in front of a standing audience.
Frederick II made the transverse flute fashionable far beyond Sanssouci. Adorning his New Palace with flute sounds would undoubtedly please him. Meet American star flautist Jed Wentz and some carefully selected future masters from European Music Colleges.
