This item is for two Best Available "A-price" tickets to see Imogen Cooper on piano at the Merrill Auditorium on Wednesday, April 25, 2012 at 7:30pm.

British pianist Imogen Cooper is lauded for her virtuosity, poetic poise and suave athleticism. With an enormous range within the classical repertoire, she makes beautiful work of challenging music, consistently demonstrating passagework The Sunday Times calls “exquisite—impeccably even yet full of life, never mechanical…” Throughout her international career she has performed with the New York and Vienna Philharmonics, Royal Concertgebouw, and London Symphony, with recital appearances in Chicago, Paris, Vienna, and at London’s Wigmore and Queen Elizabeth Halls. Ms. Cooper’s Portland Ovations program will include works by Haydn, Schubert, Brahms, Beethoven, and Chopin.

Each year since 1931, Portland Ovations, formerly known as the PCA Great Performances, has brought a dynamic season of exceptional performing artists to Portland, Maine, including classical music, jazz, opera, dance, theater, and Broadway.
