Teresa Walters
CityMusic Columbus presents Teresa Walters at Via Vecchia Winery on October 27, 2013 at 2:00pm.
"The mesmerizing performances by TERESA WALTERS on today's international concert stages inspire unanimous praise. Hailed as "The International First Lady of Piano", she is described by Austrian National Television as "that rare musical phenomenon" and "one of the world's most significant pianists." Her prestigious invitations to perform in honor of the 2011 Liszt Bicentennial included Copenhagen's Hungarian Embassy and Beijing's Forbidden City Concert Hall. Her biography could be written from the headlines alone: "Teresa Walters Plays Piano on Grand Scale" (The Cincinnati Inquirer); "Her Hands Create Cascades of Luminescence" (The Washington Post); "A Liszt of Very Fine Performances" (The Budapest Sun); "Concert Extraordinaire" (Bucharest Stagiunea); "Bright Shining Star in Recital" (El Norte, Mexico); "Teresa Walters Holds Keys to Audience's Hearts" (The Record).
In recent years, she has performed as recitalist and orchestral soloist on six continents and in most of the 50 United States at venues including Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center in New York, Wigmore Hall in London, the Salle Cortot in Paris, Moscow's Great Hall, Australia's International Conservatorium and Jerusalam's Concert Hall. With her vast repertoire, she has also performed at Vienna's Beethoven Festival and at Spanish Music festivals in Barcelona and Madrid. Her recent Lincoln Center recital in New York earned a standing ovation from a capacity crowd. She is the first American pianist invited by Hungary to present the Anniversary Concert in honor of Liszt's birthday. Prestigious invitations to perform at the Franz Liszt Academy of Music and the Liszt Museum in Budapest as well as at Liszt's Birthplace in Raiding and at Esterhazy Palace under the patronage of Prince Anton Esterhazy attest to her growing reputation as one of the finest interpreters of Liszt performing and recording today. In fact, the American Record Guide has announced: "Her competition is virtually nil."
Teresa Walters is noted for her commitment to music as the ultimate universal language, and for her vision of music as ministry. She is equally at home in the world's major concert halls or in campus and community settings, where her "Keynote Comments"© endear her to audiences. In addition to maintaining an extensive international touring schedule, she is recording a series of releases for Archangelus Records featuring the sacred piano works of Liszt. The first two albums of the Abbé Liszt Series have been nominated for the Grand Prix du Disque of the Hungarian Liszt Society." (www.teresawalters.com)
