The Romantic Flute. A Concert Programme by Florian Rabe (Flute) & Birgitta Birchall (Piano)
Cyprus Wine Museum Erimi, Kourio, 29 November 2024 19:00
Prepare to be enchanted by the magical combination of flute and piano as Florian Rabe and Birgitta Birchall bring the timeless beauty of Romantic music to life. Together, they will immerse you in a world of melodies that evoke deep emotion, love, and a touch of the mythical. The flute has always been known for its ethereal, poetic sound, and its ability to convey a range of emotions – qualities that were particularly valued by composers of the Romantic era. The program includes pieces from Felix Mendelssohn, Sergei Rachmaninoff, Gabriel Fauré and others.
This special concert isn’t just a treat for music lovers—it’s also a chance to give back. Co-hosted by CIWOT (Cyprus International Women of Today), the artists are dedicating their earnings to Room of Hope, a charity that provides holistic support to vulnerable people in Cyprus, especially women rescued from human trafficking.

Birgitta Birchall graduated from the Music Conservatoire and University of Gothenburg, Sweden, and has since worked in both Sweden and the UK as a teacher, conductor, A’ level examiner of Performance and Composition, as well as a solo and ensemble performer (Piano, Organ and Harpsichord). This includes a course at the Nice Academy with the Organist Pierre Cochereau and a series of Baroque concerts with the Oboist Malcolm Messiter. She is now looking forward to working with fellow musicians here in Cyprus.
Florian Rabe studied flute playing in Germany and was part of different orchestras in Germany and the UK over many years before specialising in chamber music, performing as a soloist as well as in diverse groups of musicians. In 2019, he moved to Cyprus where he has regularly performed baroque music as part of the FluBoe Trio in the Music in the Mountains series.
