4) Notices and Events ZIMBABWE ACADEMY OF MUSIC & PERFORMING ARTS BULAWAYO Tel: 2260684 / 2267195 E-mail: music@gatorzw.co.uk THURSDAY 23 MARCH AT 6.30 P.M. EASY VIRTUE Sir Noel Coward died fifty years ago on 26 March 1973 and Easy Virtue is based on the play written when he was only 25. It's a social comedy in which a glamorous American divorcee, Larita (Jessica Biel), meets and impetuously marries a young Englishman, John Whittaker (Ben Barnes), at the Monaco Grand Prix. When they return to England, his mother (Kristin Scott Thomas) takes an immediate and strong dislike to her daughter-in-law, while his father (Colin Firth) finds a kindred spirit and Family tensions escalate as she and her daughters make it their mission to drive her away from the family fold. - Biel holds her own with the seamless acting chops of Firth and Thomas. The movie benefits from a snappy musical score with familiar standout show tunes from Cole Porter. [Entertainment Spectrum] - Echoing the words of the great Porter song, Easy Virtue deliciously misbehaves. [Seattle Times] - A sparkling, classy and ultimately satisfying experience. [Observer] Admission: US$2.00 [free to Film Members] FRIDAY 24 MARCH AT 6.0 P.M. GIRLS' COLLEGE INTER-HOUSE SINGING COMPETITION The Noel Coward Trilogy originally scheduled 24 March will be shown at a later date THURSDAY 30 MARCH AT 6.30 P.M. SHARPE'S RIFLES Based on the novels by Bernard Cornwell, Sharpe ran to 14 full-length television films that follow the adventures of the titular soldier through the later years of the Napoleonic Wars. The programmes were an outstanding achievement for the small screen, dominated by Sean Bean's central performance as the heroic, troubled outsider who turns out to be a resourceful and loyal leader. Sharpe is often visually striking, the action tense and gripping. This first episode follows the exploits of Sharpe and his band of men through Spain after they survive an ambush by French cavalry. - Sharpe has brilliant, simple story lines, good action scenes and excellent characters. - This is a terrific action historical series, great acting and sets, I recommend this series to anybody. [IMDb]. Admission: US$2.00 [free to Film Members] FRIDAY 31 MARCH AT 6.30 P.M. MUSIC BY RACHMANINOV Sergei Rachmaninov was born on 1 April 1873 and the concert includes three works performed by the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra: Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini [Stephen Hough], Symphonic Dances - and his best-loved work, Piano Concerto No. 2 in C minor [Helene Grimaud]. - The Paganini Rhapsody receives a scintillating performance from the soloist, Steven Hough. [Amazon] - The mercurial Rachmaninov Dances provide a virtuoso opener, which Rattle launches at a crisp tempo, allowing him to gather momentum and exploit the superb playing. [BBC Music Magazine] - Add to this the romanticism of the conductor, pianist, and composer and this is a truly outstanding presentation of the work (Piano Concerto No.2. Wonderful. Grimaud at her best. [Slipped Disc] Admission: US$2.00 [free to Red Carpet Members] SATURDAY 1 APRIL AT 10.00 A.M. ACADEMY STUDENT CONCERT Piano - Voice - Guitar - Violin - Saxophone - Trumpet - Drums - and more!
