About The Event

The Cleveland Museum of Art partners with Piano Cleveland to present this spring’s Chamber Music in the Atrium lunchtime concert series, which occurs on February 24, March 24, April 21, and May 12 at 12:00 p.m. Each performer presents a captivating piano performance and provides background on the works performed.

Currently associate professor of music and the associate chair for performance activities at Smith College, pianist Jiayan Sun’s story includes more than piano. Sun’s deep interest in early keyboard instruments resulted in a dynamic career in which he won major piano prizes in the Cleveland, Dublin, Leeds, and Toronto International Piano Competitions, as well as critically acclaimed performances as a fortepianist and harpsichordist with the American Classical Orchestra in Alice Tully Hall. His solo album, Ferruccio Busoni and His Muses, garnered further critical acclaim by Gramophone and International Piano. He is a Steinway & Sons artist.
