“Music is enough for a lifetime,
but a lifetime is not enough for music.”
Sergei Rachmaninoff
About
Award-winning composer pianist Gregory Taboloff brings the magic and mystique of the Romantic era to modern audiences around the globe. His scores and performances have been featured in movies, television, radio and stages from Carnegie Hall to Moscow to Asia. Taboloff's breathtaking magnum opus, his first Piano Concerto "The Mystic", wowed audiences and received "Bravos" from the East Bay Times. He debuted his magnum opus at the iconic Herbst Theater with equally unequivocal praise, "As good as the Beethoven Concerto was, (Taboloff's "Mystic") made an even greater impression...it was cast in the grand manner.", the Piedmont Post raved. Not often in the last century has a concerto been written in the neo-romantic style that has the spirit and "dynamic tension of Rachmaninoff".
