Sara Davis Buechner, piano

Noted for her musical command, cosmopolitan artistry, and visionary independence, Sara Davis Buechner is one of the most original concert pianists of our time. Making her Adelphi debut, this concert will include works by Mozart, Brahms, Ravel and Chabrier.  Lauded for her “intelligence, integrity and all-encompassing technical prowess” (New York Times), “thoughtful artistry in the full service of music” (Washington Post), and “astounding virtuosity” (Philippine Star), Japan’s InTune magazine sums up: “Buechner has no superior.”

Buechner has performed across every state and province of North America as a recitalist, chamber musician and soloist with top orchestras like the New York Philharmonic, San Francisco Symphony and Philadelphia Orchestra. She has played such venues as Carnegie Hall, the Kennedy Center, and the Hollywood Bowl. Buechner has toured throughout Latin and South America and Europe. She enjoys a special following in Asia, where she has been a featured soloist with the Sydney Symphony, New Zealand Philharmonic, New Japan Philharmonic, and Shanghai Philharmonic, among many others.

Buechner is on the faculty of Temple University’s Boyer College of Music and Dance and previously taught at the Manhattan School of Music, New York University and the University of British Columbia.
