Marc Raubenheimer

Raubenheimer was taught by Miss Ethel Kerkin of Durban North, South Africa, who mentored him throughout his life.He memorized the 24 Bach Preludes and Fugues over a weekend as financial constraints forced him to borrow the music on short loan.He extended his concerts through Austria, Germany and Switzerland and performed regularly in his homeland, where he was awarded with the South African Radio prize.Raubenheimer was the first guest soloist who performed with then newly formed KwaZulu Natal Philharmonic Orchestra (South Africa) in September 1983.[2] While traveling to the final recital entailed by the prize on 7 December 1983, he was killed in a collision of airliners in Madrid, Spain.
