Pianist Frank Pavese

MAHWAH, N.J. — The Open Door Concert Series at Ramapo College continues on Wednesday, November 8 at 7 p.m. in the York Room at the Birch Mansion. The concert is free and open to the public.
The guest artist will be internationally acclaimed pianist Frank Pavese, described by the New York Times as a pianist with “energy and commitment,” whose playing is “persuasive and especially sonorous.” He credits his studies with Bulgarian pianist Elka Gurova Kirkpatrick as having the greatest influence on him. Mr. Pavese has toured throughout Europe to critical acclaim.

Mr. Pavese will offer a beautiful and varied program with familiar gems by Beethoven and Chopin, alongside more adventurous works by Hindemith, Barber and New Jersey composer Paul Mack Somers.  The York Room’s recently donated and refurbished Steinway will surely sound magical in Mr. Pavese’s hands.

This concert was made possible by a grant from the Ramapo College Foundation.

Admission is free and doors open at 6:30 p.m. Seats are on a first-come basis.
