Concert Pianist Daniel Glover will perform a piano recital to benefit the Valley Concert Chorale on Saturday, February 5, 2011 at 7:30 p.m., at the First Presbyterian Church in Livermore. The church is located at the corner of 4th and L Streets.
Mr. Glover, who is the accompanist for the Valley Concert Chorale, is an internationally known concert pianist who has performed extensively throughout the world.
Of Mr. Glover's talent, the San Jose Mercury News said, "Glover is an incisive, exciting, and apparently tireless player...a natural for hyper-virtuosic challenge." The San Francisco Classical Voice remarked, "Brilliant, tender, whimsical, sparkling...Glover brought everything together into a well balanced, evenly measured medium... The elegance and civility of Glover's approach was musically unimpeachable..."
Mr. Glover's program will feature compositions by Franz Liszt to commemorate the 200th Anniversary of the great Hungarian pianist and composer's birthday. Additionally, Mr. Glover will play Schumann's First Piano Sonata, Bartok's Suite, and works by the lesser-known Russian composer Sergei Liapunov, written in the style of Liszt, one of which will be his stirring Elegy in Memory of Liszt.
