QUALICUM BEACH — A solo piano recital by an internationally touring virtuoso is what’s in store as Music on Sunday continues Nov. 15 at The Old School House arts centre in Qualicum Beach.
Kenneth Broadway’s career has taken him throughout the world as soloist, accompanist, and chamber musician.
He is most recognized for his work with pianist Ralph Markham as part of one of the world’s most accomplished piano duos.
Broadway’s chamber music experience is extensive with appearances throughout Europe, Japan, and North America. He has also collaborated with celebrated singers including tenor James King and soprano Reri Grist in Vienna, Berlin, Munich, Paris and many music festivals.
Broadway continues a busy musical life in Vancouver, where he has made his home since 1983.
He has appeared with the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra in performances of Liszt’s Hungarian Fantasy and Mozart’s Concerto for Three Pianos.
Recordings include a collection of French music with Vancouver bassoonist Christopher Millard, and with violinist Andrew Dawes he has recorded a disc of the complete works for violin and piano by the Canadian composer Harry Somers.
During the past two years, he has given over 150 concerts for Artsway, a B.C. organization which brings music into hospitals and care centers.
Formerly an instructor of piano and chamber music at the UBC School of Music, Mr. Broadway now enjoys teaching in his private studio in Lions Bay.
The concert runs from 2:30-4:30 p.m. at TOSH, 122 Fern Road West. Admission is $15. — Submitted
