The Guardian describes Steve Osborne’s piano prowess as “poetry in sound, absolutely astonishing.” Recognized for his repertoire of both mainstream and lesser-known composers, the award-winning Scottish artist performs on the world’s most prestigious stages with top orchestras and as a soloist. Widely regarded as one of the foremost Beethoven pianists of his time, Osborne will include the composer’s famed Hammerklavier sonata in his concert at Middlebury College. Technically challenging, the work showcases Osborne’s ability to navigate complex arrangements with ease, an ability he also brings to Schubert’s Drei Klavierstücke.
