We are thrilled to present our sixth season of A Little Night Music concerts and welcome you to join us for another year of music making here at Community Music School!

 

“I am so grateful that you turned me on to the CMS! I have hungered for some live classical music...and this venue has really filled a need for me. The concert on the evening of my opening was incredibly wonderful. I was almost moved to tears of joy. I cannot believe such wonderful things are going on so close by, and I didn't even know it until now!” - Molly Light, Schwenksville, PA

Mr. Moutouzkine burst onto the U.S. concert scene at the age of 19, when he received the Special Award for Artistic Potential at the XI Van Cliburn International Piano Competition and has since appeared widely on the world’s great concert stages. His performance in London’s Wigmore Hall was hailed by International Piano magazine as “grandly organic, with many personal and pertinent insights, offering a thoughtful balance between rhetoric and fantasy…technically dazzling.” More about Alexandre Moutouzkine...
