Greetings!
This Friday we are pleased to present the 2nd concert of our Friday Piano Fest!
Please join us for an exciting evening of diverse music for one piano and four hands featuring Bradford and Maribeth Gowen. The Gowens have appeared as a duo throughout the United States and abroad, including performances of Mozart's Concerto for Two Pianos with several American orchestras and a 1997 Schubert bicentennial concert at the National Gallery of Art devoted to the composer's four-hand works. Both pianists also maintain active careers as solo performers.
Musically yours,
Kathy Judd
