The Philip Lorenz Memorial Keyboard Concert Series presents renowned Irish pianist Barry Douglas at 3 p.m. Sunday, March 11, in the Concert Hall at Fresno State. Douglas will perform works by Schubert, Brahms and Mussorgsky.
With “the mind of an analyst, sensitivity of a poet, and fingers of a magician” (The Los Angeles Times), Douglas has established a major international career since winning the Gold Medal at the 1986 Tchaikovsky International Piano Competition in Moscow.
As artistic director of Camerata Ireland and the Clandeboye Festival, he continues to celebrate his Irish heritage while also maintaining a busy international touring schedule that has led to collaborations with world-renowned conductors such as Sir Colin Davis, Vladimir Ashkenazy, Kurt Masur, Lorin Maazel, André Previn, and Michael Tilson Thomas.
