Marouan Benabdallah
Joshua Uzoigwe (1946-2005)
Acclaimed Moroccan-Hungarian international pianist Marouan Benabdallah
has embarked on a new tour of India between 17th - 27th November 2018.
His tour dates include performances in Pune, Bangalore, Dimapur, Delhi
and Trivandrum, featuring works by African composers Joshua Uzoigwe (Nigeria), Salim Dada (Algeria) and Nabil Benabdeljalil (Morocco).
Benabdallah
received his training at the Bela Bartok Conservatory and the Franz
Liszt Academy in Budapest, and in 2008, was presented with the Medal of
the Hungarian Parliament for his achievement in music – an honor he
shares with such artists as Placido Domingo, José Cura and others. Benabdallah
first attracted international attention in 2003, following his triumphs
at the Hungarian Radio Piano Competition, the Andorra Grand Prize, and
shortly after, the Naples International Piano Competition. Marouan
Benabdallah was a prizewinner at the Arthur Rubinstein Master
Competition in Tel-Aviv, Israel, where the local media proclaimed his
playing “miraculous” (Maariv).
In
2014 Benabdallah started his project "Arabesque", a series of recitals
held in renowned concert venues presenting the music of composers from
Morocco and the Arab world.
