Adam Smale Is there no festival this year?
The Gilmore Keyboard Festival at 7:16am May 8
Thanks for asking. The Gilmore Festival is a biennial event — occurring every two years in even numbered years. The next Festival begins in April 2010. Watch for our line-up to be announced this September!


The Gilmore Keyboard Festival We hope you enjoyed The Gilmore's presentation of Murray Perahia in concert at Chenery Auditorium last night. It was a spectacular performance by one of the world's finest pianists and an evening that will be long remembered. This photo of Mr. Perahia in rehearsal was taken on March 25 at Chenery. What did you think of the concert? We would love to hear your comments!
Laurie at 2:07pm March 27
Megan and I enjoyed the concert very much. Mr. Perahia is amazing. The pizza and company was also most excellent!!! :-)


Owen It was a monster of a recital, with the Beethoven and Brahms electrifying the audience. The Schubert encore was equally impressive.


The Gilmore Keyboard Festival Mr. Perahia arrived in Kalamazoo yesterday and practiced late into the evening. Tonight's concert won't be recorded. Hearing it live is your only opportunity; don't miss it! Good seats are still available at the door. Chenery's box office opens at 6:30. See you tonight! (Sample Murray Perahia's music on thegilmore.org.)
Susan at 6:58am March 26
We just arrived home from seeing a new baby granddaughter on the East Coast to hear this concert. Can't wait!
