The Formentera Office of Culture is pleased to report that Saturday 23 April, the Sala de Cultura (Cinema) will host a concert of transverse flute and piano performances of works by C.P. Bach, Tchaikovsky, Liszt, Mozart and more.
This flute and piano recital showcases Úrsula Pomar, director and instructor at the Formentera School of Music and Dance (EDMF), and José Jaime Hidalgo, a pianist and former local teacher. The pair crossed paths while teaching at the EDMF, and are classically trained artists who exude virtuosity and passion for their instruments.
A young flautist from Sóller (Mallorca) and one of the foremost flute players of the moment, Pomar has been admitted to several postgraduate programmes to work with the most renowned flutists in the world. She is also a member of the Jove Orquestra Nacional de Catalunya. Currently she combines a soloist career with her role as director and teacher at the EDMF.
José Jaime Hidalgo, a Valencian pianist specialised in opera and ballet, has cultivated an extensive artistic career that began at a very young age. He is also a noted improviser, composer and educator. A national concert pianist, Hidalgo has also performed in Paris, and his talent as an opera repertoire player has taken him to a multitude of Italian and Spanish theatres including Teatro di Roma, La Fenice in Venice, Palacio de las Artes in Valencia and the Ópera de Tenerife, among others.
The show will take place at 8.30pm on Saturday 23 April in the Sala de Cultura (Cinema). The performance is part of the Diada de Sant Jordi programme. Admission is €7, and 50% off for unemployed people, under-employed freelancers, retirees, under-25s and single-parent and large families.
Tickets will be on sale at www.entradesformentera.cat and half an hour before the performance at the box office. The show will be carried out in accordance with safety protocols and in compliance with current regulations.
