ALON GOLDSTEIN Sunday, March 13 – 3:00 p.m. | Sundin Music Hall Alon Goldstein graduated from the Rubin Academy of Music at Tel-Aviv University and continued his studies at the Peabody Conservatory with Leon Fleisher. As a Performance Fellow at the Guildhall School in London, he initiated a chamber music series and devised annual festivals for the four-hand piano repertoire. He also spent two seasons as Artist-in-Residence at the Theo Lieven International Piano Foundation in Lake Como Italy. He has performed with a long list of major orchestras and under the batons of Zubin Mehta, Leon Fleisher, Peter Oundjian, and Klaus Peter Flor, among others. In the U.S. he has appeared at the Gilmore, Santa Fe, Tanglewood, Ravinia, Marlboro, Seattle, and Steamboat festivals, and in Switzerland at the Verbier Festival. In the 2008-09 season, he made his Carnegie Hall debut in the Mozart Triple Concerto with Joseph Kalichstein and Shai Wosner. His recent Beethoven concerto cycle with the Rockford Symphony, which expanded the traditional concert experience to a multi-media presentation on Beethoven’s life and work, brought enthusiastic audience response and record attendance. Last season, he helped pay tribute to Dame Myra Hess in a recital broadcast live on radio and television in Chicago to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the National Gallery of Art Series founded by her. The intelligence and sensitivity abundant in Goldstein’s music-making are also readily found in his writings at “Blog…Stein.”
