PianoBotanica a night of Brazilian music with Duo Bastos & Borges
Singapore, July 1, 2015 — After two very successful editions, the free concert-in-the-park PianoBotanica will be back at the Singapore Botanic Gardens on 6 September 2015 to celebrate the friendship between Brazil and Singapore on the latter’s 50th year of independence.
This year, fronting the concert in the park is Brazilian Duo Bastos & Borges, who have performed across the globe for many years. The duo comprises flutist João Bastos and pianist Yara Borges, both of whom received classical training at top music institutions in Europe. They have performed extensively across Europe with a repertoire of both classical and popular Brazilian music.
Everyone across the island is invited and encouraged to bring their own picnic mats, food and wine to bask in the lush greenery of the Botanic Gardens and enjoy the music and atmosphere to the fullest.
