Piano Recital - Zoom Live Streaming
Corbin Beisner, concert pianist, performs regularly throughout the United States and Europe. Appearances have included recitals at the Conservatoire Liceu in Barcelona and Basel, Switzerland with the 12 Transcendental Etudes by Liszt, the Liszt Saal at the Accademia d’Ungheria in Rome, performances for the American Liszt Society in Kansas City, for the Chopin Societies of Connecticut, and the Chopin Foundation in Florida, USA. He has also performed with symphony orchestras in Connecticut, Nevada, and Indiana in the USA and in Basel, Switzerland. He is a graduate of the Hartt School of Music in Connecticut, USA and of the Franz Liszt Academy of Music (Liszt Ferenc Zeneművészeti Egyetem) in Budapest, Hungary. In 2018, he has received rave reviews in the German and Swiss newspapers “Die Neue Fricktaler Zeitung” and “Badische Zeitung” for his recitals, notably his performances of the music of Beethoven, Debussy, and Liszt.
“Corbin Beisner (USA, b. 1988) is already a distinguished pianist with a burgeoning career. His playing of the Petrarch Sonnet 104 and the Dante Sonata showed the wealth of artistic experience that lay behind very assured and absolutely note-perfect accounts. His apparently unperturbable demeanor at the keyboard affords him a justified air of true musical authority, and his performance was masterly.”- Leslie Howard, President of the London Liszt Society, 2018
“He is an exceptional pianist-his playing has impact and greatness.”
