International Concert Pianist Performs Free Concert on MDI
NORTHEAST HARBOR—On Saturday, September 20 at 5:30 p.m. the Northeast Harbor Library will present a free performance by internationally renowned concert pianist Dr. Donna Coleman.
Dr. Coleman offers a program of American music that contrasts late Romantic and early Modern works: the powerful and Bluesy Piano Sonata by North Carolina-born Hunter Johnson; selections from two composers closely associated with Blue Hill, Maine—Ethelbert Nevin and Horatio Parker; ending with the sublime Piano Sonata by Aaron Copland, one of the country's most celebrated composers.
A lifelong student of both music history and piano technique, Dr. Coleman will precede each work with illuminating commentary, for a concert experience that is both entertaining and enlightening.
