JAN LISIECKI
Playing In The Big Leagues
Conservatory piano student Jan Lisiecki couldn’t believe his luck when Ottawa’s National Arts Centre (NAC) invited him to appear as a soloist in its 2006 fundraising event featuring world-class headline musicians Yo-Yo Ma and Emanuel Ax.
Despite feeling a little star-struck (not surprising, since he was then just 11-years-old), Jan received a standing ovation for his performance of two Chopin etudes and a Rachmaninoff prelude. “I felt very honoured and excited to meet the musicians and play for them,” he said.
This was Jan’s fifth performance at the NAC. Last year, he played at celebrations of Mozart’s 250th birthday at the invitation of NAC Music Director Pinchas Zukerman. He also performed for Governor General Michaelle Jean at Rideau Hall’s 2006 Canada Day celebrations.
BRAVO to Hans and Janet Black, who co-chaired the very successful McGill Chamber Orchestra’s gala evening at Théâtre Maisonneuve on April 15. The performance by 13-year old pianist Jan Lisiecki was brilliant and the entire evening was a triumph. The Orchestra is indeed fortunate to have Hans as its Chairman.
