Eight Seasons with Daniel Rowland and COSA
Sanlam Auditorium - 03 Oct at 14:00
"Rowland caused a stir in our concert halls with his absolute immersion in the music, always completely at the service of the composer." The brilliant violinist Daniel Rowland and COSA will combine Astor Piazzolla's Four Seasons with the Vivaldi composition of the same name: perhaps the best-known piece of classical music there is." Supported by the Muziek Centrum Nederland.
