Newport Classical: Pianist Anton Mejias

"One of the great Bach players of our time," Finnish-Cuban pianist Anton Mejias performs the United States premiere of 12 new preludes by composer Philip Lasser in response to and alongside Book II of Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier. A distinguished member of The Juilliard School faculty since 1994, Philip Lasser is Director of the European American Music Alliance Summer Music Institute and Academy and is known for creating a unique sound world that blends the colorful harmonies of French Impressionist sonorities with the dynamic rhythms and characteristics of American music.

Newport Classical's Chamber Series takes place at Newport Classical Recital Hall in downtown Newport, known for its striking architecture and excellent acoustics. The Chamber Series reaffirms Newport Classical's commitment to year-round classical music programming. Audiences are invited to enjoy performances by world-class classical musicians in a relaxed setting, with a complimentary glass of wine from Greenvale Vineyards and homemade treats by Newport Classical volunteers.
