Piatigorsky Foundation Concert

Join us on Thursday, April 18 at 1:00 pm at the Senior Center for another wonderful Piatigorsky
Foundation Concert with featured artist Richard Dowling. Hailed by The New York Times as “an
especially impressive fine pianist,” Richard Dowling appears regularly in solo recitals, music
festivals, and as guest soloist in concerto engagements with symphony orchestras. Career highlights
include performances in New York at Lincoln Center and Carnegie Hall. The National Federation of Music Clubs honored him with a special award recognizing his outstanding performances of American music. Works of Chopin, Debussy, Gershwin, Gottschalk, Joplin, Ravel, ragtime, and early jazz figure prominently in his extensive repertoire. He is the first pianist in the world to perform the complete cycle of Scott Joplin’s 53 rags, marches, waltzes, and cakewalks in public –– nearly four hours of music, all from memory. His 3‐CD set, The Complete Piano Works of Scott Joplin was nominated for a Grammy
Award in 2018. Richard Dowling has received praiseful reviews and is a versatile recording artist with over a dozen CDs of classical, chamber, ragtime, jazz, and popular music. He has been a Piatigorsky Artist since 1994 and has performed over 1,200 recitals across America under its auspices. Mr. Dowling resides in New York and is an official Steinway Artist.
