INTRODUCING THE ARTIST:

Possessing a special affinity for the performance of works by American composers, pianist Noel Lester bring this repertoire to life with great energy and enthusiasm. He has appeared in concert at Carnegie Recital Hall and the Kennedy Center, and at international festivals in Holland and Ireland. He is a graduate of the Peabody Conservatory of Music and is Professor of Music at Hood College in Frederick, Maryland.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM;

"...Noel Lester gives us Gershwin at his most authentic debonair, sophisticated and urbane. A cautionary word, particularly to pianists: buy this CD at your own risk. The music is addictive. One hearing and you're hooked..."
