Matthew Schellhorn to premiere Berimbau
Posted on Thursday, July 19, 2007
UK pianist Matthew Schellhorn will give the premiere of my piano piece Berimbau this November in Hertford, UK. Matthew has been making quite a name for himself in recent years, being selected as a “Talent to Watch” for 2007 by BBC Music Magazine, and described as “one of Britain's most exciting young pianists” by Classic FM.
Further performances of Piosenki
Posted on Friday, July 13, 2007
I'm delighted that The Academy, a program of Carnegie Hall, The Juilliard School, and The Weill Music Institute have decided to put on two performances of Piosenki this autumn, including a repeat performance at the Weill Hall at Carnegie on October 10th.
The Academy features some of the leading younger generation players from Julliard and has been set up to help ease the sometimes difficult first steps into the profession. I've been invited to help the players get to know the piece at Skidmore College in Saratoga Springs, NY which is where the other performance will be held on October 5th.
There's also another NY ensemble interested in Piosenki, of which hopefully more soon.
