These Crane School of Music students performed a Chopin Piano Recital April; 9 at the Tri-Valley Central School. Students are Erika Tazawa, Dai Yi, Rhimmon Simchy-Gross and Tri-Valley's Sean Carmichael (standing far right). Welcome Home Event For Sean Carmichael
Talent personified is the only way to describe the Chopin Piano Recital staged April 9 at the Tri-Valley Central School by students from The Crane School of Music at SUNY Potsdam.
Piano techniques like Arpeggios, Legato playing with arpeggios, Scales, arpeggios with syncopation , Staccato-macchiato alternations along with various other piano techniques were played to perfection in the presentation of the complete Preludes and Etudes of Chopin by Rhimmon Simchy-Gross, Erika Tazawa, Dai Yi and Tri-Valley's own Sean Carmichael.
In a concert that could easily have been presented at Carnegie Hall or Bethel Woods these four Crane School of Music students honored the 200th anniversary of Chopin's birth.
2004 Tri-Valley Central School graduate Sean Carmichael along with the three other Crane students captured the Tri-Valley audience with one of the most outstanding piano recitals this writer has ever seen.
Sean is also a graduate student at the Crane School of Music and is working towards his Masters degree while studying piano under the direction of Paul Wyse. As a winner of the Crane Concerto Competition, Sean performed Rachmanioff's 1st Concerto with the Crane Symphony Orchestra in 2007. He has also performed solo recitals at the Old Forge Arts Center, the Shandalee Music Festival here in Sullivan County and has been working as a collaborative pianist with the Crane Opera Ensemble since 2006.
A recipient of numerous awards and scholarships, Sean is also employed as an accompanying assistant at the Crane School.
Kudos to the Tri-Valley Central School and their outstanding music department and Kevin Giroux for bringing these very talented piano students to Sullivan County.
Bravo to these four students for a professional-style concert well done.
