Night Tales Dynamic pianist Beatrice Long brings night tales of fantasy to the noonday series, featuring Ondine & Scarbo from Ravel's Gaspard de la nuit, inspired by the spine-chilling poetry of Aloysius Bertrand; Nocturnes of Chopin and Faure; and movements from Béla Bartók's Out of Doors Suite.
Beatrice Long Bio: Hailed for her "maximum insight and fiery brilliance in her keyboard approach" by the Post and Courier of Charleston, SC, and her "inspired mastery, emotive range and profound lyricism characteristic of the virtuoso" by La Nacion of Costa Rica, Beatrice Long has emerged as one of the most sought-after pianists in her generation. Very much at home on the concert stage, Ms. Long has performed as a soloist with Baltimore Symphony, Orquesta Sinfonia Estato de Mexico, National Symphony of Taiwan, Taipei Symphony Orchestra, Civic Orchestra of Taipei, Jura Symphony Orchestra (France), New Amsterdam Symphony (New York), Festival Orchestra of Santa Barbara, Ensemble du Monde NYC, and Laredo Philharmonic among others. A medalist in several international competitions including Cleveland International Competition, World Piano competitions of Cincinnati and the Taipei International Piano Competitions, Long's rare combination of dramatic virtuosity and eloquent musicianship has captivated audiences in France, Belgium, Austria, Switzerland, China, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, Central America and in the U.S. As a recording artist, Beatrice's albums (Naxos) received favorable reviews from the BBC Magazine (U.K.). The American Record Guide describes her recording of Scriabin Mazurkas (Naxos) 'impressive on many levels'. Her live and recorded performances have been broadcast by National Public Radio, CBC Canada, Radio France, TV NY 1 among others. The Long Duo's 2011 release (Dorian sono Luminus) of two-piano concerti by Dana Suesse (world premier), Harl MacDonald and Vaughan Williams has been hailed by critics from Fanfare Magazine, American Record Guide, Audiophile Audition and Arts Desk, London.
