...Artists in residence
for the National Trust of Australia (Victoria)
Acclaimed for their artistry and professionalism, the Melbourne-based Team of Pianists has presented solo and chamber recitals, concerto performances, CDs and broadcasts over many decades and is also committed to encouraging and promoting young musicians through masterclass programmes and concert opportunities. The Team has produced many CDs covering a wide range of music, including a number of exciting, yet rarely recorded works, as well as two innovative videos and various publications on the art of piano playing and musicianship. The Team works closely with the National Trust of Australia (Vic) to present recitals in historic venues in Melbourne and regional areas.
At Glenfern, the Team partners established educational programmes such as the annual Spring Piano School for primary and secondary school age students (since 2004), professional development events such as International Teachers‘ Seminars (2009 & 2010) and the Autumn Piano Weekend (2013), as well as presenting masterclasses by Australian and overseas artists. As well as the Colin & Cicely Rigg Bequest Twilight Chamber Music at Rippon Lea concert series, Team of Pianists organises an annual Piano Marathon for pianists of all ages in the Ballroom during late summer. The three partners are Darryl Coote, Rohan Murray and Robert Chamberlain.
A unique double celebration recital in the National Trust’s lavish 19th century mansion Labassa. Experience the opulent architectural features and impressive interiors of this historic house, as you enjoy a feast of piano music to celebrate Kevin Suherman, brilliant younger pianist and protégé of the late Max Cooke OAM, joining the Team of Pianists!
Darryl Coote, Robert Chamberlain, Rohan Murray and Kevin Suherman, all four partners of the Team of Pianists, will perform solo piano music in two magnificently restored spaces; the Reception Room and the Music Room, featuring composers such as Brahms to Beethoven, Ravel to Ronald Stevenson and much more.
Each recital will be performed twice; after interval the audience will swap rooms to hear their second recital. Both rooms are at opposite corners of the ground floor, separated by doors and the entrance hall, so each audience will not be disturbed by sound from the other recital!
With strictly limited seating, our previous Rigg Bequest double-recitals at Labassa sold out early, so book soon! There are also specially discounted ticket price for current National Trust members.
