Southampton Cultural Center’s Rising Stars Piano Series will present Pianofest alumnus Michael Davidman in concert on Saturday, September 9, at 6 p.m. Davidman will perform works by Franck, Granados, Liszt, and his own compositions.
A dedicated and disciplined young musician, Davidman has won numerous piano competitions and has been a soloist with the Philadelphia Orchestra, Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra, Monterey Symphony and many others. He has performed at Alice Tully Hall in Lincoln Center, Carnegie Recital Hall, the Kimmel Center, Sandler Center, Symphony Space, Merkin Concert Hall, given recitals in Spain at the Burgos International Music Festival, in Italy at Teatro Alfieri, in St. Petersburg Russia with the International Academy of Music, and at numerous music festivals.
An opera enthusiast from a very young age, Davidman delights in uploading historical and rare opera recordings to his YouTube channel called PucciniMD and in accompanying opera singers on special occasions on “opera night” at a New York City restaurant.
Tickets for the performance are $20 in advance at scc-arts.org or $25 at the door (students under 21 attend for free). Southampton Cultural Center’s Levitas Center for the Arts is at 25 Pond Lane, Southampton Village.
