A recent New York concert by pianist STEVEN BECK was described as “exemplary” and “deeply satisfying” by Anthony Tommasini in the New York Times. Mr. Beck made his concerto debut with the National Symphony Orchestra. His annual Christmas Eve performance of Bach’s Goldberg Variations at Bargemusic has become a New York institution. As an orchestral musician he has appeared frequently with the New York Philharmonic. His discography includes George Walker’s piano sonatas, on Bridge Records. A Steinway Artist, he is on the faculty of the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, and teaches orchestral piano at The Juilliard School.
