Classical Pianist Tanya Gabrielian in Concert
Sunday, September 10 | 5 PM | $15
Pianist Tanya Gabrielian is set to release her debut album Remix, featuring piano arrangements of Bach solo cello and violin works, on MSR Classics September 12. The recording was inspired by a month-long hospitalization for a spinal injury, during which the music found on the album provided solace from the physical pain and psychological isolation.
Southampton Arts Center will kick-off a nine-date tour to accompany the album release, including performances for people in affiliate houses for the National Alliance on Mental Illness.
The London Times calls Gabrielian "A pianist of powerful physical and imaginative muscle".
About Tanya Gabrielian:
While studying abroad at Londons Royal Academy of Music, the pianist slipped during martial arts training and twisted her spine. During the month-long ordeal that followed a teenager navigating a foreign medical system alone through nine hospitals and two operations Gabrielian took comfort in her recordings of Bachs unaccompanied works.
In addition to elevating her above the daily pain and struggle of her hospitalization, Gabrielian was also able to pause from the highly-focused practice of music in which she had been so immersed, and focus instead on the pure experience of music. So when the time came to choose the repertoire for her album, she decided to share this music that had had so profound and influence on her, via rarely-performed transcriptions for piano.
