On Monday, September 21 at 8:00 p.m., the Cleveland Contemporary Players (CCP) at Cleveland State University will present Lisa Moore, piano, in concert.

Australian-American performer Lisa Moore has been crowned "New York's queen of avant-garde piano" and a “visionary” by The New Yorker magazine. Moore's performances combine musical and emotional power with vivid vocal theatricality--whether in the delivery of the simplest song or the most complex score.

The Program:

Seven Etudes for Piano    Don Byron
To His Coy Mistress    Frederic Rzewski
American Berserk    John Adams
For the Sexes: The Gates of Paradise    Martin Bresnick
