Prestigious pianist to perform at Pitt State on Jan. 24  

At the very forefront of American pianists, critics and audiences have unanimously hailed the distinctive and compelling performances of pianist Steven Spooner.    

He has been engaged at many of the world’s most prestigious venues such as Carnegie Hall, The Great Hall of the Liszt Academy (Budapest), Salle Cortot (Paris), and Shanghai Concert Hall, among many others as soloist with orchestra and recitalist.  

On Friday, Jan. 24, he’ll share his talents from the stage of the Sharon Kay Dean Recital Hall in McCray Hall at Pittsburg State University in a concert that will begin at 7:30 p.m. 

Spooner has released more than 30 recordings on Naxos, A Life of Music, and other record labels including a monumental project of 16 albums honoring his heroes called Dedications.  

He is professor of piano at the Peabody Institute, and previously at the Juilliard School. 

His performance is part of the ongoing Solo & Chamber Music Series, which brings notable musicians to campus six times a year for unique listening opportunities.
