About the event
Flagstaff Piano Festival presents pianist Jeffrey Swann, “a virtuoso with a soul” (The Guardian) enjoying a long-standing international performing career on four continents. In addition to presenting lecture-recitals worldwide, Swann has performed with the symphonies of Cincinnati, Pittsburgh, Seattle, Indiana, Dallas, Saint Louis, Phoenix, Houston, Lexington, Baltimore, and Minneapolis; and in Europe with the orchestras of Rotterdam, The Hague, Belgian National and Radio, Santa Cecilia, La Scala, Maggio Fiorentino (Florence), RAI Turin and Rome, Südwest Rundfunk, Bayerischer Rundfunk, the Prague Philharmonic, Radio France de Montpellier, and the London Philharmonia. He serves as Professor of Piano at New York University and the President’s Distinguished Artist-in-Residence at Northern Arizona University.
Jeffrey Swann performs a recital that pairs two steeples of the piano repertoire: Beethoven’s restless “Waldstein” Sonata, Op. 53 and Schubert’s monumental Sonata in B-flat Major, D. 960.
During his residency at Flagstaff Piano Festival, Jeffrey Swann will also teach a public piano masterclass on Wednesday, June 22, 2022 at 10:00AM-12:00PM in Kitt Recital Hall. Admission to the masterclass is free.
