THE ENCHANTED PIANO
Widely regarded as an artist with a passionate voice and an adventurous spirit, pianist ELIZA GARTH has championed some of the most demanding works in the repertoire. Among these are the complete solo piano works of the Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Donald Martino, which she has recorded on two nationally acclaimed CDs for the Centaur label.
A graduate of the Juilliard School, Ms. Garth is a founding member of the Chamber Players of the League of Composers/ISCM in New York City, and is in frequent demand as a guest artist. She is a member of the music faculty at St. Mary’s College of Maryland.
She has been recognized twice by the Maryland State Arts Council with the Individual Artist Award, most recently in 2010 for her performance of John Cage’s Sonatas and Interludes.
Coming in February: Eliza Garth’s latest solo recording, including works by David Froom, Scott Wheeler, Sheree Clement, Frederick Tillis, and Johannes Brahms. Centaur label, CRC 4170.
“Ms. Garth ... has an exquisite ear for piano sound. One can think of no one better qualified to play this intricate, shining music. ”
