Piano Recital: Clara Rodriguez
This event has sold out, email info@arundells.org to be added to a waiting list
We are honoured to welcome back the acclaimed Venezuelan pianist Clara Rodriguez for an intimate recital on Sir Edward Heath’s beloved Steinway piano.
Clara has earned international acclaim for her expressive tone and innovative programming, often blending classical repertoire with works by South American composers. A Royal College of Music graduate, she has performed widely across the UK, Europe, and the Americas, and is a passionate advocate for Latin American piano music.
This recital is also a heartfelt tribute to Dominic Seligman, who for many years was the driving force behind the piano concerts at Arundells. Dominic’s deep connection to this place was rooted in family ties—his father, Madron Seligman, was a close friend of Sir Edward Heath, and the Seligman family spent much time here. Encouraged by Sir Edward Heath, Dominic pursued a career in music, training at the Royal College of Music before dedicating himself to performing, teaching, and promoting concerts.
Dominic sadly passed away this June at the age of 67. His passion for music and his warm presence will be deeply missed by the Arundells staff, volunteers, and the many audience members who supported the concerts over the years. Clara Rodriguez, a close friend of Dominic and the artist he originally invited to perform at Arundells, honours his memory with this special recital.
