Artown Fever - Firewors @ThePiano
On the Fourth of July, Four world-class pianists dazzled an overflowing crowd at Steinway Gallery for the first of eleven performances at this year’s Artown. Fireworks @ThePiano featured four internationally renowned pianists playing classical masterpieces and original compositions on one of Steinway’s concert grand pianos.
Just two days later, Fuego restaurant was filled to capacity as a dozen singers recreated the second act of Die Fledermaus, and it was standing room only at Steinway Gallery on Sunday, Juily 7, as Nevada Opera performed “Opera Shorts”, nine micro-operas by living composers.
