Internationally acclaimed Russian pianist Alexander Kobrin, winner of the 2005 Van Cliburn competition, presents an evening recital of works by Schubert, Chopin, and Brahms. Called the “Van Cliburn of today” by the BBC, Alexander Kobrin is at the forefront of today’s performing musicians and has served on the faculty of the Chautauqua Piano Program for the past several years. He has performed in the world’s greatest halls — including New York’s Avery Fisher Hall at Lincoln Center, Washington’s Kennedy Center, London’s Albert Hall — and with leading orchestras, such as the New York Philharmonic, BBC Symphony, and the Warsaw Philharmonic. An inspiring teacher, Kobrin recently joined the faculty of the Eastman School of Music in Rochester, New York, and has served on the jury of several prestigious competitions.
