“One was struck, time and again, by her musical taste and technical refinement. Polished playing of the highest order was presented right through.” REVIEW African Pianism at Cape Town Concert Series by Albert Combrink Full review: weekendspecial.co.za/rebeca-omord...

Honoured to give a lecture at the Wits University in Johannesburg today. African Pianism consists of a substantial piano repertoire with generations of composers writing major piano works.

Thank you Cape Town Concert Series! So so special to play African Pianism here! So moved by the standing ovation! 🙏❤️❤️❤️

South African College of Music Honoured to present African Pianism at South African College of Music today - thank you Grant McLachlan for having me! Loved also hearing some lovely African piano pieces from the composition students.

Wonderful review by Tim Hochstrasser in Plays to See of last Saturday’s Violin Music of the African Diaspora concert with Aisha Syed Castro & @rebecaomordia.bsky.social at @wigmore-hall.org.uk playstosee.com/reviews-in-a...

#NowListening to "African Pianism Volume 2" by @rebecaomordia.bsky.social - works by Girma Yifrashewa, Salim Dada, Nabil Benabdeljalil, Mokale Kopaeng, Fela Sowande, Akin Euba, Florence Price, plus a Trad. arr. Grant McLachlan. As captivating as the first album! #classicalmusic #MusicAgainstMadness

The 7th African Concert Series began yesterday at @wigmore-hall.org.uk featuring piano music from Ethiopia with Girma Yifrashewa, traditional music from Gambia with Tunde Jegede & The African Classical Ensemble and Violin Music of the African Diaspora with Aisha Syed Castro & Rebeca Omordia .

Spectacular climax to @africanseries.bsky.social @wigmore-hall.org.uk with Tunde Jegede & the African Classical Music Ensemble: spellbinding solo kora work by Jegede himself, with thrilling traditional & contemporary rep for the band. Brilliant, brilliant day.

Afternoon concert @africanseries.bsky.social @wigmore-hall.org.uk was a delight - beautiful programme from Aisha Syed-Castro (the high-octane Marsalis especially dazzling) with superb support from series founder & curator @rebecaomordia.bsky.social.

Fine start to @africanseries.bsky.social Day @wigmore-hall.org.uk with Girma Yifrashewa performing his own works. Apart from the joyous ‘Elilta’ (check out @rebecaomordia.bsky.social’s ace rendition on ‘African Pianism vol 2’), these were new to me: sublime, with the Emahoy pieces an extra treat!

If there aren’t koras in heaven, I’m going to the other place! ✨

Packed day ahead! Lightning trip to Foyles then straight to @wigmore-hall.org.uk for the @africanseries.bsky.social Day. Morning concert almost sold out, availability for afternoon & evening: come along! www.wigmore-hall.org.uk/whats-on/ser...
