The Aurora Public Library is presenting Piano Stories with Penny on Thursday, January 27 from 7 to 8 p.m. via Zoom.
Piano Stories with Penny, an online presentation from Canadian pianist, Dr. Penny Johnson, treats audiences to an hour of humorous and poignant stories from the great pianists of the past. Following on the heels of her previous in-person shows, The Great Pianists: Stories, Music & More and New Adventures in Piano Listening, the program draws upon unique material from a variety of historic piano texts, memoirs, interviews and articles. Accompanied by pictures, the program offers a friendly and engaging glimpse behind the scenes of such figures as Franz Liszt, Benno Moiseiwitsch, Artur Rubinstein, Constance Keene and even the pet dog of Richard Wagner. This program is suitable for piano-enthusiasts of all ages.
