Concert RecitalsClassical Piano & Poetry
Our programmes are mixtures of piano music from the Baroque, Classical & Romantic periods, & the 20th & 21st centuries (including Colin’s own compositions), intertwined with poetry from Ancient Greece & Rome, the Elizabethans, the 19th & 20th centuries, and new poems by Ingrid. (Repertoire lists - Ingrid, Colin) -Piano & Poetry Facebook page "It was a privilege to have Colin Decio and Ingrid Prosser at Old St Paul’s recently. Ingrid’s beautiful interpretation of both her own and a range of other person’s poetry was a delight. Having it interspersed with Colin’s superb mastery on the Old St Paul’s heritage grand piano ensured a most enjoyable lunchtime concert that was appreciated by all who attended." Recital programmes:
"Thank you for such a very pleasant afternoon. We enjoyed having you, with good feedback from the audience." "The programme (of poetry and music) was conceived in a very cohesive manner." "Colin and Ingrid recently performed a Piano and Poetry concert in the Hutt City Lunchtime Concert Series. Their programme was a delightful mix of very appealing piano music, including standard repertoire and Colin’s own compositions, interspersed with Ingrid’s vibrant poetry, beautifully spoken. The concert was well received and very much appreciated by our regular audience. We look forward to having Colin and Ingrid perform in the series again in the future." "Seeing someone play the piano like Colin does is enthralling, and something many children don't get to experience. The show is definitely appropriate for the entire school." |
