Christopher O'Riley Performs Live In Concert 2/10

"With unblinking virtuosity, O'Riley captures [Radiohead's] signature contradiction: encountering something exhilarating ... and feeling simultaneously somehow unwell."
- Rolling Stone

From his groundbreaking transcriptions of Radiohead to his unforgettable interpretations of classic and new repertoire, pianist Christopher O'Riley redefines the possibilities of classical music. Notably, he has served as host of NPR's "From the Top" for the past 10 years. Join us for an intimate evening of his contemporary rock interpretations, including Radiohead, Nirvana, Elliott Smith and more.

As interpreter and arranger of some of the most important contemporary rock music of our time, Chris is a cherished bridge between musical tastes, genres, media and audiences, fostering a new generation of contemporary artist personality. His recording of Radiohead transcriptions "True Love Waits" received four stars from Rolling Stone magazine and is as critically acclaimed as it is commercially successful. His second pop interpretation of music from the British alt-pop outfit entitled "Hold Me To This: Christopher O'Riley plays the music of Radiohead," received equal success. His recent releases include tributes to Elliott Smith and Nick Drake.
