Arnaldo Cohen, the distinguished Brazilian-born pianist whose command of piano
sonority, technical wizardry and original interpretations have won him international
renown, will perform Sunday, Jan. 31, at 3 p.m. in Memorial Chapel.
This performance is the first appearance by Cohen in the Schenectady Museum-Union
College chamber series. The concert will include works by Debussy, Chopin, Schumann and
Liszt.
Cohen is winner of the 1972 Busoni International Festival in Italy. “If
you're looking for a mystery in the classical music world, you might find one in the
career of pianist Arnaldo Cohen,” said Shirley Fleming of the New York Post.
The Boston Globe noted, “…Pianist Arnaldo Cohen sets a standard that will be
hard to equal.”
