Pianofest in the Hamptons Announces 31st Season
Pianofest in the Hamptons Launches 14 Concerts Featuring Highly-Gifted Pianists From Around the World
One of the premiere summertime classical music festivals, Pianofest in the Hamptons launches the 2019 season concerts and prepares to perform for audiences in the Hamptons and around the world.
Last summer was the first time Pianofest pursued live-streaming and reached nearly 10,000 views in total. With the help of Artist-in-Residence Konstantin Soukhovetski, Pianofest streamed the Monday night concerts throughout the entire season and looks forward to pursuing more live-streaming this coming summer. Check the Facebook page for updates.
In addition to the Southampton Cultural Center, St. Luke’s Episcopal Church, and Avram Theater, Pianofest expands this year to include two additional concerts at Westhampton Beach Performing Arts Center.
