In his Palm Desert Recital Debut, Riverside County native, pianist Jonathan Mamora, returns to the desert following his stunning First Prize awards in both the Senior Solo and Concerto Divisions of the 2022 Palm Springs International Piano Competition (formerly The Waring). Jonathan’s recent First Prize Award at The Scottish International Piano Competition in Glasgow, UK, adds to his growing list of accomplishments. New York Concert Review writes “Mr. Mamora’s playing is larger than life … he dazzles with lightning-fast fingers and an encyclopedic array of dynamics and articulations.” Mamora’s March 26th performance is certain to leave the audience spellbound to witness the meteoric rise of this talented, world-class pianist.
Meet & Greet reception following Jonathan’s performance will include champagne and desserts.
Featuring performances by our stellar and talented Board of Directors, in addition to members of our desert musical community, this concert will showcase a diverse program of popular classical favorites, as well as the brilliant compositions of our President, Joe Giarrusso. Performers will include Artistic Director Laureate John Bayless, French hornist Bram Conley, mezzo-sporano Elaine Wang Meyerhoffer, pianist Howard Schreiber, vocalist Debra Pollock, Giorgi & Anna Latso piano duo, and Artistic Director and pianist Robert Koenig.
This incredible performance will be followed by a post-concert dessert and cocktail reception.
In an evening that features two of music’s fastest rising stars, Palm Springs International Piano Competition will present 19 year old New York jazz sensation, Anais Reno, along with renowned Music Director/Pianist, Pete Malinverni, in their Coachella Valley debut.
