    Rice University Shepherd School of Music presents a Guest Artist Recital.  Tuesday, October 25, at 8pm. Duncan Recital Hall - Alice Pratt Brown Hall. Acclaimed pianist Jeffrey Siegel presents a Keyboard Conversation on Beethoven and the Americans: Copland, Bernstein, and Gershwin. Renowned for his extraordinary level of musical artistry and his engaging, conversational approach to classical keyboard literature, Jeffrey Siegel offers an insightful, entertaining look at works of these great composers.

    Keyboard Conversation: A Concert with Commentary.

    The distinguished American pianist JEFFREY SIEGEL has been soloist with the world's great orchestras. Mr. Siegel has collaborated with many of the pre-eminent conductors of our time.

    In addition to his solo appearances, Jeffrey Siegel presents Keyboard Conversations®, a unique, concert-plus-commentary format in which he speaks to the audience about the music before performing each work in its entirety. Newcomers to classical concerts have greeted these programs enthusiastically, as they present an informal, accessible and highly entertaining introduction to the vast repertoire of the piano and to classical music in general.

    Born into a musical family, Jeffrey Siegel studied with Rudolf Ganz in his native Chicago, with the legendary Rosina Lhévinne at The Juilliard School and, as a Fulbright Scholar, with Ilona Kabos in London. Mr. Siegel and his wife live in New York City and are the parents of two grown children.
