Lise de la Salle, piano concert

In just a few years, through her international concert appearances and her award-winning Naïve recordings, 29 year-old Lise de la Salle has established a reputation as one of today’s most exciting young artists and as a musician of uncommon sensibility and maturity. Her playing inspired a Washington Post critic to write, “For much of the concert, the audience had to remember to breathe… the exhilaration didn’t let up for a second until her hands came off the keyboard.”

The Sanford-Hill Piano Series is sponsored by the WWU Music Department. Named for Ford Hill, Professor Emeritus, and his student, Sibyl Sanford, the series brings international pianists to perform and instruct at WWU. Ticket proceeds benefit piano scholarships at WWU.
