STEINWAY ARTIST HEADLINES DUBOIS PIANO FESTIVAL

BGSU will host American pianist and Steinway Artist Spencer Myer for the annual David D. Dubois Piano Festival and Competition Feb. 12–14.

Lauded for "superb playing" and "poised, alert musicianship" by the Boston Globe, Myer is one of the most respected and sought–after pianists on today's concert stages. During his visit to BGSU, he will sit on a panel of judges for the Dubois piano competition; work with piano students during a master class, and present a community concert at 8 p.m. on Feb. 13 in Kobacker Hall at Moore Musical Arts Center.

His performance will include pieces by Mozart, Schumann, Ravel and Bolcom.
