VENUE CHANGE FOR ABU DHABI CLASSICS CONCERT WITH DAME EVELYN GLENNIE ON MAY 14
"Listen - The World's Foremost Solo Percussionist" will no longer be performed as published in the "Abu Dhabi Theatre". The new venue will be "Zayed University - Auditorium" (Delma Street, Abu Dhabi). Purchased tickets remain valid, the start time stays at 7 pm.
Evelyn Glennie is the first person in musical history to successfully create and sustain a full-time career as a solo percussionist. Her irrepressible energy and enthusiasm make her one of the most eclectic and innovative musicians on the scene today. This exciting concert is guaranteed to divert, entertain and to teach us how to listen.
