David Lively masterclass
Last spring EPTA Greece had once more the pleasure and joy of hosting world famous American virtuoso and pedagogue David Lively, through the efforts of its president Mrs. Natalia Michailidou, a dear friend of Mr. Lively.
From the 20th to 21st of April, 18 students participated in Mr. Lively’s superb masterclass - held at Athens Conservatory's "Aris Garoufalis" hall - where he once more demonstrated his capacity for teaching both with intelligence and warm-hearted enthusiasm, a rare combination which greatly inspired all youngsters, as the photo shown here reveals.
Mr. Lively’s last recording - “I Got Rhythm” - a collection of piano pieces by American composers such as Gottschalk, Joplin, Gershwin and Copland, has just been released by the french record label Lamusica.
