News from Campbellsville University

CAMPBELLSVILLE, KY - The internationally-acclaimed pianist Andrea Anderson of California will be returning to Campbellsville University's campus to present a guest piano recital on Thursday, January 28, 2010 at 8pmET/7pmCT, in The Gheens Recital Hall, in the Gosser Fine Arts Center, 210 University DR, Campbellsville. The program includes works by J. S. Bach, Mozart, Chopin and Ravel.

On Friday, January 29, Anderson will conduct a piano masterclass with university piano students from 10amET/9amCT to noon ET/11amCT, in The Gheens Recital Hall. Both events are open to the public free of charge.




Anderson presented an "outstanding program on campus some years ago under the auspices of the Central Kentucky Arts Series," Dr. Roberts said.

Anderson earned a Ph.D. at Claremont Graduate University in 2001. Her love of Impressionism fostered an inter-disciplinary research topic exploring the connections between painting, music and poetry of this era, Roberts said.

Prior to that, she studied at Manhattan School of Music, Columbia University and the University of Southern California. She has several recordings and has concertized internationally.

She was born in Buchanan, MI, where her musical skills began attracting attention at the age of four. Her teachers have been Robert Steinbauer, Bela Nagy, Robert Goldsand, Jeaneane Dowis, Gwendolyn Koldofsky, Daniel Pollack and Bernardo Segall.

Anderson was granted the Harold Bauer Award by the Manhattan School and a grant from the Rockefeller Foundation for further study and performance at the Aspen Music Festival. Sponsors have been awarded grants by the National Endowment for the Arts to present Anderson's performances.

Anderson has performed in the United States, China, Sweden, Finland and Lithuania. Recent United States performances have included such venues as Arizona State University, University of Utah, University of Nevada at Las Vegas, California Institute of Technology, the Palm Springs Desert Museum and the University of the South.

Roberts said her journey into Impressionism, a unique program combining art and music, has been hailed by critics and audiences alike.

He invites the public to the performance. For more information, contact Roberts at 270-789-5287 or via e-mail at mwroberts@campbellsville.edu.
