The 2019 Alexander Paley Music Festival takes place this weekend at St. Luke Lutheran Church on Chippenham Parkway. Pianist Alexander Paley is back in town, collaborating this weekend with violinist Amiram Ganz and pianist Pei-Wen Chen.
The Alexander Paley Music Festival started in 1998 as a solo piano performance in a small bookstore in downtown Richmond and has been held every year since. This year's concerts will be Friday evening at 7:30 (a solo performance by Mr. Paley), Saturday evening at 7:30 p.m. (music for violin and piano with Amiram Ganz) and Sunday afternoon at 3:00 p.m. (Alexander Paley and Pei-Wen Chen).
Listen in as I chat with Alexander Paley and Ariram Ganz about the weekend performances and their history performing together.
Yours in good music,
Mike Goldberg Classical Music Host, VPM Music
