What are you doing Sunday afternoon on March 4th? Attend Carnegie Hall and spend the afternoon with Barbara Nissman for a special performance of piano music by Rachmaminoff, Liszt, and Chopin. The performance is on Sunday, March 4, at 3:00 p.m.
“I have trouble articulating the difference between Nissman and other pianists. She seems willing to go over the cliff, hand in hand with the composer.” -classical.net
Barbara Nissman connects— not only with the music and its composer, but she connects the composer to the listener, touching souls in the process. She makes music relevant. Hailed as “One of the last pianists in the grand Romantic tradition of Liszt, Rachmaninoff, and Rubinstein,” Nissman continues the grand bravura tradition of romantic pianism.
A few things about Barbara....
Performer, writer, lecturer, and frequent guest artist/clinician, Barbara Nissman has toured and given master classes throughout the world. Nissman made history in 1989 by becoming the first pianist to perform the complete piano sonatas of Sergei Prokofiev in a series of three recitals in both New York and London. She recently appeared on stage with Don Henley of the Eagles and Billy Joel, performing on the “Walden Steinway” in a gala fundraiser for the Walden Woods project held at Jazz at Lincoln Center, and was one of the participants with Leonard Slatkin at the Kennedy Center’s 25th Anniversary Gala Concert.
