The Japanese artiste’s performance will be on September 24.

Prepare for an extraordinary night of classical music as the renowned Japanese pianist, Marie Kiyone, graces the stage at Dubai Opera on September 24. This exclusive concert, organized by SAMIT Event Group as part of the VIP Classical initiative, promises to be an enchanting journey into the world of classical piano.

A Tribute to Frédéric Chopin:

Marie Kiyone’s captivating performance will commence with a heartfelt tribute to the legendary composer Frédéric Chopin. She will showcase her exceptional skills and emotional depth through renditions of three of Chopin’s masterpieces: the enchanting Barcarolle in F-sharp Major, the powerful Polonaise No. 5 in F-sharp minor, and the beloved Mazurkas. Each piece offers a unique glimpse into Chopin’s genius and artistry.

The Haunting Danse Macabre:

The first part of the concert will culminate with the hauntingly beautiful “Danse macabre.” Originally composed by Camille Saint-Saëns for orchestra in 1874 and later transcribed for piano solo by Franz Liszt, Kiyone’s interpretation promises to capture the eerie and evocative essence of this iconic piece, creating a mesmerizing experience for the audience.

Chopin’s Melodic Mastery:

Following a brief intermission, Marie Kiyone will return to the stage, presenting two more gems from Chopin’s repertoire. The Scherzo No. 2 in B-flat minor will dazzle with its virtuosity, while the poignant Nocturne in E major will showcase Chopin’s mastery of melody and emotion. These compositions serve as a fitting tribute to the legendary composer.

Franz Liszt’s Complex Compositions:

The concert’s grand finale will feature two masterful compositions by Franz Liszt. First, the Sonetto 104 del Petrarca will captivate the audience with its lyrical beauty. Then, Kiyone will take on the formidable Totentanz (Dance of the Dead): Paraphrase on Dies irae, demonstrating her virtuosity and the ability to breathe life into Liszt’s intricate and dramatic works.

Don’t miss this opportunity to witness the artistry and passion of Marie Kiyone as she brings classical music to life on the stage of Dubai Opera. It’s a night of musical brilliance that promises to leave a lasting impression on all who attend.
