Join the UCLA Herb Alpert School of Music as we welcome pianist Corey Hamm for the third installment of our 2024/25 David L. Abell Piano Master Series, a concert series which features renowned artists visiting UCLA to perform and work with our piano students.
Corey Hamm is known for his interpretation of Frederic Rzewski's People United Will Never Be Defeated, and he performs selections from this sprawling masterpiece at the Abell Series.
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 2024/25 David L. Abell Piano Master Series.
