This is a groupmuse

A live concert in a living room, backyard, or another intimate space. They're casual and friendly, hosted by community members.

Host

My friend Yelena Beriyeva is easily one of the best classical pianists I've ever heard, and I've heard more than a few. I could go on and on about her accolades, but I'll just say the Boston music community is lucky to have her and that I know her performance of Pictures at an Exhibition will move and impress you.

She is also a warm and generous person, and has agreed to donate the proceeds of the concert to helping my wife reach her fundraising goal for the Best Buddies Bike Challenge, a 100 mile ride to Cape Cod.

As I said earlier, I'm a pianist, but I didn't mention I am a jazz musician and composer, so I'll also be sharing a bit of the music that I love and know best!

A couple nice things others have said about Yelena:
“the paragon of the concert pianist” (LA Examiner)
“a standout performer” (The Boston Musical Intelligencer)

Our Roslindale place is great for concert going...plenty of parking, floor space, couch space, and chair space. We'll have a couple snacks and you're welcome to BYOB.
