David L. Abell Piano Master Series featuring José Ramón Mendez

classical

We are excited to welcome José Ramón Mendez to our David L. Abell Piano Master Series for Spring 2023. Ramón Mendez has been described as "an artist with a polished sound and tremendous constructive power" and hailed by the Hoja del Lunes de Madrid, as "the Spanish pianist of his generation."

 

This event is made possible thanks to a gift from Barbara Abell who established The David L. Abell Piano Masters Series in honor of her late husband. Pianos were a passion for David, the owner of David L. Abell's Fine Pianos in Los Angeles, which became a hot-spot for musical legends such as Frank Sinatra, Stevie Wonder, Andre Previn, George Shearing, Bob Hope, Tony Bennett, and Benny Carter. We are proud to celebrate this program as part of the 2022/23 David L. Abell Piano Master Series.

This event is free and open to the public. Seating is first come, first served. Early arrival is recommended.
