Pianist Fred Moyer returns in May

The Village Center is pleased to welcome pianist Frederick Moyer back to Friendship Heights for a special afternoon performance on Thursday, May 21, at 2:30 p.m. Equally at home with Bach, Beethoven and Rachmaninoff, as well as Ellington and Gershwin, Moyer’s recitals are creative, engaging and entertaining and generally include time-honored favorites, as well as pieces that audiences may be hearing for the first time.

Also featured is his MoyerCam, a projection system that allows the audience to see his hands as he plays. Moyer has established a vital musical career that has taken him to 44 countries and to such distant venues as Suntory Hall in Tokyo, Sydney Opera House, Windsor Castle, Carnegie Recital Hall, Tanglewood, and the Kennedy Center. He has appeared as a piano soloist with worldrenowned orchestras including the Cleveland, Philadelphia and Minnesota Orchestras; the St. Louis, Dallas, Indianapolis, Milwaukee, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Houston, Boston, Singapore, Netherlands Radio, Latvian, Iceland and London Symphony Orchestras; the Buffalo, Hong Kong and Japan Philharmonic Symphony Orchestras; the National Symphony Orchestra of Brazil; and the major orchestras of Australia. His many recordings on the Biddulph, GM and JRI labels reflect an affinity for a wide variety of styles. Click Sign Up for Programs at the top of the page to register.
