Robert DeGaetano and the St. Petersburg State Symphony Orchestra

A native of New York City, virtuoso pianist and dynamic composer Robert DeGaetano will perform, at the New York Premiere, his own "Piano Concerto No. 1," accompanied by the St. Petersburg State Symphony with Maestro Vladimir Lande. A Steinway Artist, DeGaetano's playing has been hailed by the New York Times as "robust, precise, chiming, and propulsive." Released in 2013 on Navona Records, DeGaetano's Concerto, which has been hailed as "refreshingly indescribable" (Audiophile Audition), is in the spotlight for one special evening in New York's historic Town Hall.
