House Concert with Danny Holt, piano
About the Show
Pianist Danny Holt delights in exploring lesser-known works from the classical repertoire, and this program will feature an eclectic program of rarely heard music from the late 18th century into the early 20th century. Holt will perform selections on harpsichord, fortepiano, and modern pianos; and he’ll share anecdotes about the music, the composers, and the fascinating history of the development of the piano.
Called “phenomenal” by the late music critic Alan Rich, and hailed as one of the “local heroes” of the Los Angeles music scene, pianist Danny Holt performs around the globe in concert halls (Carnegie Hall, Walt Disney Concert Hall, Hollywood Bowl), clubs (Joe’s Pub, The Blue Whale, Copenhagen Jazzhouse) art galleries (MASS MoCA, Hammer Museum), churches, living rooms, and wherever else he can find a piano and someone to listen. His recorded catalog includes the recent solo album “Piano Music of Mike Garson” and other solo, chamber, and orchestral releases on the Innova Recordings label, pfMENTUM, New World Records, Deutsche Grammophon, Acis Productions, and L’st records. Holt recently relocated to a small town on the coast of Maine, but he maintains strong ties to Southern California, where he still runs the concert series here founded more than a decade ago, Desert Hot Springs Classical Concerts.
