Last Friday 30 we held our year
opening event at APAVAC. We are very fortunate at the association to
have friends who help generously with their effort , their time and
their enthusiasm. This time however we were given a most precious
gift. We were given talent.
Pianist and friend Yamini Teresa
Prabhu Barretto gave a piano recital for members and friends in a
memorable event.
PROGRAMME
Prelude and Nocturne op 9 for left hand
Two movements for Sonata No. 3 op. 23 in F# minor.

Allegretto.
Sonata No. 4 op. 30
Andante,
Prestissimo Volando
IES Luis Vives students of Art and Music also had the opportunity to enjoy a Lecture-Demonstration with Yamini using piano fragments to illustrate commentaries on the life and works of the Russian composer Scriabin.
The seminar was conducted in English so that students and teachers would enjoy two universal languages: music and the XXI century lingua franca-English .
Such was the involvement of the student audience that the following morning our pianist Yamini was invited to
an art class were students could capture the spirit of the music on
canvas.
All in all a unique opportunity for
members and friends to relish the exquisite wonder of Art with
a capital A.
Thank you Yamini for a delightful
evening. We all went home with a big smile
