The Goethe-Institut in Indonesia proudly presents the piano recital “From Schubert to Sukarlan” by Australian pianist Daniel Herscovitch. As a former DAAD-scholar, Daniel Herscovitch did not only study at Sydney Conservatorium of Music, but also under Rosl Schmid in Munich. While based in Germany for 13 years, Herscovitch performed extensively on the continent and in England and toured Australia several times. Since returning to Australia he has been active in solo and chamber music and appeared at several festivals. He travels regularly to Europe and America for recitals and master classes, and also visits Indonesia annually.

His repertoire includes contemporary Australian, Asian, European and American works, several of which he commissioned and premiered. He is currently Senior Lecturer in Piano at The University of Sydney Conservatorium of Music, where he has also lectured for many years in chamber music and piano pedagogy.

“From Schubert to Sukarlan” will cover 200 years of piano music. Besides classical works by Beethoven, Schubert, Liszt and Schumann, also works by the Indonesian composers Yazeed Djamin and Ananda Sukarlan will be heard.
