Pianist Natasha Paremski to Perform Pictures at an Exhibition in Mesa Arts Center's Classical Music Inside Out Series
Paremski's performance is part of Mesa Arts Center's Classical Music Inside Out series, which is curated by world-renowned cellist Zuill Bailey. The series enables participants to hear great works of music interpreted by master musicians who are also able to share with the audience conversations about their passion for the music and composer, artistic and technical process as well as informal human interest insights which significantly deepen the listening experience. Paremski will also be joined Thursday night by Zuill Bailey in a performance of Rachmaninoff's Cello Sonata in G minor, Op 19.
Paremski extends her performance activity and range beyond the traditional concert hall. In December 2008, she was the featured pianist in choreographer Benjamin Millepied's Danse Concertantes at New York's Joyce Theater. She has appeared in a major two-part film for BBC Television on the life and work of Tchaikovsky, shot on location in St. Petersburg, performing excerpts from Tchaikovsky's First Piano Concerto and other works. In the winter of 2007, Paremski participated in the filming of Twin Spirits, a project starring Sting and Trudie Styler that explores the music and writing of Robert and Clara Schumann.
Natasha began her piano studies at the age of 4 with Nina Malikova at Moscow's Andreyev School of Music. At the age of fifteen she debuted with Los Angeles Philharmonic and recorded two discs with Moscow Philharmonic Orchestra. Her first recital album was released in 2011 and it debuted at No. 9 on the Billboard Traditional Classical chart. In 2012 she recorded Tchaikovsky's first concerto and Rachmaninoff's Paganini Rhapsody.
Mesa Arts Center is located at One East Main Street in downtown Mesa.
