LCCC’s Signature
Series to Host Pianist Jenny Lin
Acclaimed pianist Jenny Lin will perform in a free concert at
7:30 p.m, Tuesday, October 11, 2011 at Lorain County Community
College’s Stocker Arts Center.
Lin’s performance is part of the Signature Series and is hosted
by composer and LCCC Distinguished Visiting Professor Jeffrey
Mumford. The concert is sponsored by LCCC’s arts and humanities
division. Admission is free.
Lin is one of the most respected young pianists today, admired
for her adventurous programming and charismatic stage presence.
Her ability to combine classical and contemporary literature has
brought her to the attention of international critics and
audiences.
She is also one of the featured artists on "Speaking for
Myself,” a film about Manhattan as seen through the eyes of
eight contemporary artists by Pheasant Eye Productions and
filmmaker Bert Shapiro.
Lin’s performance will include works
by Shostakovich, Bach, Mumford, Kaminsky and Chopin.
The event will be the Eva Hornyak Memorial Concert for the
2011-2012 Signature Series season. Hornyak was a mentor to
Mumford in the early stage of his career. The sister of the late
Isaac Stern, Hornyak ran a major concert series at the
University of Maryland and was one of the first to bring chamber
music to that area. One concert per season is presented in her
honor as part of the Signature Series.
