Menahem Pressler - Piano Concert, Masterclass and
photo signing - May 4th, 5th, 2006
It’s not every day that a living
legend, such as Menahem
Pressler, walks through the
doors at Hammell Music, so
we chose to celebrate the
occasion in true Hammell
Music fashion.

Well over 250 people attended
a stunning performance
Thursday evening, enjoying a
program that included Mozart
(a celebration of 250 years),
Beethoven, and Schubert.

His touch on the keyboard is
smooth and sensitive, giving a
tremendous dynamic range to
his playing.  One gets the
feeling, that if the Composer of
the piece had been in the
room, they would think " . .
That's how I meant for it to be
played . . "

The concert was followed by a
lively reception featuring
desserts and champagne.

Friday morning brought us a
Master Class to remember.  
Three tremendous students
received invaluable tutelage
from Mr. Pressler, honoring
his legacy as one of the
premier educators in the
world.  
Lastly,  Menahem was kind enough to
autograph a poster size photograph that is
featured on our Steinway Artist’s wall here in
the showroom, placing him in the ranks of
Van Cliburn, Horowitz, and other legends of
the piano.
