About This Show

Experience the poetry and communicative potency of Abas’ rare emotional interpretations of the works of Chopin, Schumann, Scriabin, Rachmaninoff and Liszt. Israeli pianist Elisha Abas is a consummate artist who projects a rare combination of intellect, elegance and pedigree. A mentee of Artur Rubinstein and a student of the Alfred Cortot School, Elisha touches an audience’s heart with his authentic spirit and electrifying rhythm. Likely inherited from his great-great grandfather, legendary Russian composer Alexander Scriabin, his rare interpretations are strongly reminiscent of the old masters. Ticket proceeds will support production of future performances and the start-up costs of an organization dedicated to preserving the culture of classical music.
