Iosif Purits’ Outstanding Success, London - UKby Roland Williams |
| Published on Nov 16, 2015, BBC Radio 3 Introducing Iosif Purits performing 'Winter' from Vivaldi's Four Seasons, live on Radio 3's In Tune program. On January 21st Iosif Purits, currently a post-graduate student in the Accordion Department at the Royal Academy of Music in London, won this year’s Patrons Award in a contest held for finalists at the Wigmore Hall. Iosif played a beautifully put together program with a masterly performance both technically and musically. His program consisted of contrasting works by Bent Lorentzen, Mussorgsky, Gubaidulina, Scarlatti, and Rodion Shchedrin. Commenting on Iosif Purits’ win Owen Murray, Head of Department, said “I am very proud of Iosif’s win, he is an outstanding player and a top Academy student. I am proud also that his success at this level follows the successes of previous accordion students against other instrumentalists, proving that the accordion is being taken seriously in the classical world”. As part of his prize Iosif will give a recital at the Wigmore Hall on Monday June 6th 2016 at 7.30pm together with the flautist Amy Yule. |
