As Artistic Director of Sheridan Music Studio Presents, I was thrilled to produce the first concert of a new series, Piano Masters on March 25, 2017 in Chicago at the Merit School of Music. This concert featured two of my prodigy students, Xiaoping Wang and Annika Huprikar, in their orchestral debuts. In addition, Pianissimo! performed multi-piano concerti by Bach-Vivaldi, Mozart and Poulenc, as well as a Chicago Premiere of composer Jeremy Beck's Nightlife for Four Pianos, collaborating with the FullScore Chamber Orchestra under the brilliant direction of Maestro Ron Arden. By all accounts, the concert was a huge success, and we are thrilled to share with you the videos on our YouTube Channel and our Pianissimo! website Video and Audio page. Please show us your support by "LIKING" the videos on YouTube, and leaving your comments, which for those of you who are novice YouTube users, helps our video to get more views and raises us in the rankings.
Believe it or not, the following day, March 26th, Pianissimo! was contracted to perform a Two Piano-Eight Hands concert at one of our favorite venues- the Northbrook Public Library. We not only had a sold-out house of 225 people, but they had to turn away about 30 people! The video of our Lavignac "Galop Marche" was the fitting Finale to our program- featuring all FOUR of us on ONE piano! Be sure to check out that video for some laughs and amusement. We hope you enjoyed it as much as we enjoyed playing it!
