Dear Friends,
Happy New Year. I hope you all had a restful vacation. This is an announcement for a FREE concert that was originally scheduled for October, but postponed due to the storm. I hope that you can attend if you can get around after tomorrow’s storm.
Pianist Maxim Anikushin will give a recital (FREE ADMISSION) on Sunday, January 7, 2018 at the Riverhead Free Library (330 Court St.: (631) 727-3228)
as part of the Piano Plus Concert Series. The series began in 1985 and I have been Artistic Director since 1989. Mr. Anikushin was born in Moscow. He came to the U.S. at age 15 and was accepted into Juilliard on full scholarship at the age of 16. He earned Bachelors and Masters degrees in Performance there and earned a DMA from Manhattan School of Music. Maxim Anikushin has performed extensively in America, Europe and Asia. He was a prize winner in a number of international competitions and was a Semi-Finalist in the 1998 Tchaikovsky Competition (Moscow) and the 2003 Queen Elisabeth Competition (Brussels). Orchestras that he has performed concertos with include the Buffalo Philharmonic and Moscow Philharmonic. In 2012, Mr. Anikushin presented a solo recital in Carnegie Hall (Stern Auditorium). He has recorded the complete solo keyboard works of Samuel Barber and hopes to release the recording soon. Below is the program.
