Prodigy to perform at St. Hugh Concert Series

St. Hugh-Steinway Concert Series will present celebrated British piano prodigy George Harliono in his Miami debut recital February 22, at 8 pm.

Now 18, he has been performing for audiences in Europe for several years. Included in his program will be Liszt’s "Transcendental Etude #10" and his "Hungarian Rhapsody #6," Mussorgsky’s “Pictures at an Exhibition,"  and other works. 

Born in Hackney in the UK, he was invited to make his first one hour long, solo recital at the age of nine. Since then he has performed in numerous locations both in the UK, USA, Europe and Asia, appearing at venues such as Wigmore Hall, The Royal Festival Hall, The Royal Albert Hall and Chicago Symphony Centre.

Tickets of $50 and $35 may be purchased online at sthughconcerts.org, by phone at 305-318-5008, or at the door.

This will be the third concert of the season for St. Hugh-Steinway Concert Series, now in its seventh season of instrumental, vocal and orchestral concerts. The series presents four concerts a year of a mixture of classical, Broadway and popular music. Each concert is followed by a free wine & cheese reception with ample table seating in the adjoining hall. 

St. Hugh Catholic Church has a striking A-frame interior space with beautiful stained glass windows and excellent acoustics. The intimate 500-seat venue has become one of South Florida’s best small concert venues. Ample secured parking is available in the church parking lot.

St. Hugh is located at 3460 Royal Road.
