Cello Concert in Gent - 10th March 2013


Andrew Wise, the CamSoc Captain of Music, is delighted to invite you to the Laureatenconcert on Sunday 10th March, 3 to 6pm in Gent, Belgium. The address of the venue is: Miryzaal van het Conservatorium, Gent, Hoogpoort 64.


Andrew has kindly pre-reserved a number of tickets for Oxbridge members to attend the concert in the best seats. The tickets cost €25 each including reception with wine and titbits afterwards. Pre-reserved tickets are limited and on a first come first served basis. To reserve your place, please write to: mail@wisenose.net


The Laureatenconcert is organised by the Lions club in Gent featuring the prize winning cellist Chiara Enderle (Lions European Musical Competition 2012). The concert is also a benefit concert for Autimismus, a project to provide self-sufficient studio style housing for autistic adults in Gent.


Chiara will play the Bach suite no. IV, Chopin's cello sonata with Andrew accompagning, and following the intermission we will be treated to a concert by the cello ensemble Octocelli (http://www.octocelli.be/).
