Deputy Consul Emil Wyss’s farewell - Piano Concerto by Luisa Splett
Deputy Consul Emil Wyss’s farewell - Piano Concerto by Luisa Splett
Under the “Inspiration Switzerland” motto, swissnex Boston organized a piano concerto with Luisa Splett, a young Swiss talent, on August 26th. Luisa Splett is a promising soloist and chamber musician with concert experiences in Argentina, Chile, Germany, Hungary, the United States, Russia and Switzerland. She performed her graduation concert at the Rimsky-Korsakov State Conservatory in Saint Petersburg, Russia, and received an “excellent” mark. Luisa performed a combination of contemporary and classical pieces by Emil Frey, Frank Martin, Alexander Skrjabin and Franz Liszt, all composers related to Switzerland.
The audience, friends and partners of swissnex Boston, enjoyed this musical delight and the subsequent Swiss buffet and networking event. The concert also coincided with the arrival of Andreas Rufer, swissnex’s new Deputy Consul, together with his family, as well as the farewell of Emil Wyss, who will take on his new assignment as Deputy Consul General in Toronto in October 2010. The event was a good opportunity for Andreas to make his first contacts among the partners and friends of swissnex Boston.
