Beschreibung
From Ear-to-Ear recounts Steven Blier's picaresque and entertaining road to a successful career as a collaborative pianist, bringing to life his partnerships with iconic performers like Renée Fleming, Susan Graham, Jessye Norman, Cecilia Bartoli and Lorraine Hunt Lieberson, and beloved mentors, including Alvin Epstein and Martha Schlamme. Drawing on his innovative work as a vocal coach and concert producer with his acclaimed New York Festival of Song, he takes readers deep into his artistic process. But Blier also tells a parallel story: his lifelong battle with a rare form of muscular dystrophy. Aided by his intense determination and wry sense of humour, Blier continues his life at the piano. As Adam Gopnik writes in his foreword, From Ear to Ear is "genuinely heroic, a testament to the power of music."
