William Westney is a classical pianist and professor of music. Westney was the top piano prize-winner of the Geneva International Music Competition, and he appeared thereafter as soloist with major orchestras such as l'Orchestre de la Suisse Romande and the Houston, San Antonio and New Haven Symphonies. During his study in Italy under a Fulbright grant he was the only American winner in auditions held by Radiotelevisione Italiana. Solo recital appearances included New York's Lincoln Center, the National Gallery and Phillips Collection in Washington, D.C., St. John's, Smith Square in London, National Public Radio ("Performance Today"), and a U.S. State Department tour of Italy. His pianism has been described as "formidable" (New York Times), "rich and distinctive" (Avanti, Milan) and "glorious" (Straits Times, Singapore). Critics have praised his recordings of solo and chamber works for CRI and Musical Heritage Society, and Newsweek.
