He has had successful collaborations with such well-regarded musical giants as Leonard Bernstein and Gunther Schuller. \nAs both Randy’s parents were musicians\, Randy began his musical career at a very young age\, with his mother as his first teacher. “Discovered” at a music festival at age 15\, he was encouraged to apply for admission to the New England Conservatory of Music\, where he earned a BA\, MM\, and AD. \nHis musical repertoire spans from JS Bach to Donald Marino\, and he performed the world premier of the piano concerto of Gardner Read at the Eastman School of Music in Rochester\, N.Y. \nHe currently serves on the faculties of the New England Conservatory\, the Longy School of Music of Bard College\, and Wellesley College. \nwww.wellesley.edu/people/randall-hodgkinson \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Leslie Amper \n“The highlight of the program was a most commanding and serious performance of Beethoven’s Diabelli Variations…She built the series in a mighty span\, intensely engaged throughout.” New York Times \nLeslie Amper launched her career with a critically acclaimed debut in the Carnegie Recital Hall. While still a conservatory student\, she won the first annual Jordan Hall Honors Competition and was selected to play Prokofiev’s Piano Concerto #3 at her graduation ceremony from The New England Conservatory of Music.

SUMMARY:Jonathan Bass\, pianist
DESCRIPTION:Virtuoso pianist\, Jonathan Bass\, brings his wide-ranging repertoire and talent to Ogunquit for the first time.  Jonathan enjoys a multi-faceted career\, and appears frequently throughout the United States and around the world as soloist and chamber musician.  Of his 1994 Weill Hall at Carnegie Hall debut\, New York Concert Review wrote\, “A technical presence to be reckoned with…soaring with a feeling of lyrical discovery.” \n“Bass is everything a pianist should be: encompassing technical brilliance without showiness\, musical and emotional depth\, careful thought and an architectural sense of structure. He has a huge dynamic range\, and what impressed me the most about his performance was his extremely delicate and controlled pianissimo\, probably the hardest thing to do well on the piano.” Christopher Hyde\, Maine Classical Beat \n			\n				Purchase Tickets\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Tickets to this performance are available three weeks before the concert date on this website.
