Piano music fans can go instead to the Weill Recital Hall to enjoy Nikita Mndoyants piano recital.Composer and pianist, winner of Cleveland International Piano Competition, Nikita Mndoyants will perform Beethoven, Schimann, Prokofiev and also his own piece, Variations on a Theme by Paganini. The pianist has stated that he is very happy to perform next to Vladimir Spivakov, especially because he used to be Spivakov Foundation scholarship holder.
Both performances are to begin at 8 pm, so the hard choice needs to be made by all means.
