Boston Musical Intelligencer Review of Andrew Cooperstock

Sept. 19, 2010

A disappointingly small audience turned out for one of the most significant and worthwhile concerts of the 2010 Maverick Concerts season in Woodstock. Saturday evening. The duo Opus Two, violinist William Terwilliger and pianist Andrew Cooperstock, played a recital called 鈥淎merican Spirit,鈥 and they justified their title with both repertoire and performance.

Pianist David Korevaar performs Liszt

May 29, 2010

Associate Professor of Piano David Korevaar performs two of Liszt鈥檚 Swiss pieces: Eglogue and Mal du pays. The first is an evocation of spring (a nice relief after the Vall茅e d鈥橭bermann); the second, based on a Ranz des vaches that Liszt evidently liked well enough to recycle many years later in his famous Nuages Gris, is filled with nostalgia and longing. Recorded live at the University of Colorado, January 26, 2010.
