Marc Raubenheimer

Marc Raubenheimer (Durban, 31 March 1952 – Madrid, 7 December 1983) was a South African pianist. Marc was taught by Miss Ethel Kerkin of Durban North, South Africa. She was a true genius of the art and it was she who mentored Marc throughout his life. Marc was fortunate to have teaching from many performing pianists including Alicia de la Roche who took a very special interest in Marc's musical career, and was a good friend. Of Miss Kerkin, Marc is remembered to have said that when he needed a "proper lesson" he came back to Ethel Kerkin. We who knew him, remember that he memorized the 24 Bach Preludes and Fugues over a weekend as financial constraints forced him to borrow the music on short loan (Prof A. Linegar, Cape Town, South Africa).
