In a triumphant solo return to the Dumbarton stage, we welcome virtuoso and educator Michelle Cann. Praised as “exquisite” by The Philadelphia Inquirer and “a pianist of sterling artistry” by Gramophone, Ms. Cann brings a warm, confident, and energetic voice to the world of classical piano. Known as an industry-leading interpreter of the music of Florence Price, she expands upon this expertise with a program celebrating Black women composers and pianists of the 20th century. Join us for an evening of world-class piano performance, accompanied by compelling storytelling and musical observations on this fresh and fascinating subject.
