OCC Piano Scholarship Recipients to Perform in Honors Recital

Orange Coast College piano scholarship winners will perform in a Piano Honors Recital on Wednesday, April 24 at 7:30 pm in the OCC Recital Hall. The concert will feature classical masterworks in the recently renovated Recital Hall, performed in an intimate concert setting on the College's beautiful Steinway Concert Grand Piano.

Scholarships are awarded each fall and spring to outstanding pianists in the OCC Piano Program; piano scholarship recipients receive full tuition for weekly private piano instruction with the College's distinguished piano faculty.

“We have students from around the world auditioning for scholarships each semester,” says Dr. Brian Gould, director of OCC's Piano Program. “The scholarship students performing in this recital are from many different countries and backgrounds — what brings them all together is their love of music, and their joy in making music at the piano.”

Tickets for the Piano Scholarship Winners Recital may be purchased for $10 at www.occtickets.com or at the door the evening of the concert. Light refreshments will be served after the performance, with an opportunity to meet scholarship students and faculty.
