The Shadow
LEWISBURG, W.Va. — Carnegie Hall will present “Music To Love!,” a special performance by internationally acclaimed pianist Barbara Nissman, on Saturday, Feb. 15, at 7:30 p.m.
In celebration of Valentine’s Day, Barbara will provide an informal evening of romantic piano music.
Performer, writer, lecturer, and frequent guest artist/clinician, Nissman has toured and given master classes throughout the world. She made history in 1989 by becoming the first pianist to perform the complete piano sonatas of Sergei Prokofiev in a series of three recitals in both New York and London.
Nissman received her bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral degrees from the University of Michigan. Born and raised in Philadelphia, she now calls West Virginia home and lives on a farm in the Allegheny Mountains.
In 2008, she was the recipient of the Governor’s Arts Award from the State of West Virginia.
Nissman is excited to return to Carnegie Hall and invites the community to attend. She says she is “looking forward to the evening together at Carnegie Hall and sharing the joy of music I truly love,” and adding “what a wonderful way to celebrate the day after Valentine’s Day.” Tickets to the event are $15 each.
