Francine Kay, piano, in Concert

 



[At First United Church. ]


Remember, 7:00 startimg time


tickets: #35; students $20


Francine has performed for us several times over the  years, beginning in the 1980’s when she had Anton Kuerti’s kudus - and  has delighted many audiences since then. Not so many get to witness her remarkable artistry since those days; She also moved on, to the staff at Princeton. We’re lucky to have  her back!


Selected critical quotes:


“[Her] Piano playing is magical...Kay’s interpretations are highly individual, compelling...something to celebrate”

    -The Ottawa Citizen

“such richness of sound, such refinement in the variety of attacks, such a sense of architecture. The result is prodigious, incomparably luxuriant in sound, bold and effortless. All we can do is wait for more from this innately original artist”

    -Repertoire, France
