Music lovers are in for a treat this Sunday as internationally celebrated concert pianist Amit Hahav makes his highly anticipated return to Hermanus, bringing with him a personal musical journey that promises to captivate audiences.
The Oak Concert, scheduled for 15:30 on Sunday, 15 March at the Hermanus Civic Auditorium, showcases Hahav’s artistic evolution through carefully selected repertoire that has shaped his distinguished career. At the heart of the programme lie two towering masterpieces of Romantic piano literature: Schumann’s emotionally charged Fantasy in C Major and Chopin’s magnificent Sonata in B Minor.
“These works have been particularly important throughout my career,” explains Hahav, whose personal connection to South Africa adds an extra layer of intimacy. The programme thoughtfully weaves together musical narratives, featuring Bach’s timeless compositions as reimagined by visionary pianists of the early 20th century, alongside Chopin’s hauntingly beautiful operatic night music.
This carefully curated concert represents more than just a recital – it’s a musical autobiography told through the keys, revealing the pieces that have most profoundly influenced one of today’s leading pianists. The intimate venue promises an up-close experience with world-class artistry.
