PianoJazz DC Presents Jenny Lin SEATED AUDIENCE TICKETS HERE LIVESTREAM TICKETS HERE
"magnificently serene, probing" Steinway Artist Jenny Lin, has built an international reputation distinguished by inventive collaborations with a breadth of artists, and has performed widely with renowned orchestras and symphonies at the world’s most notable concert halls.
Jenny has a close affinity with Philip Glass, whose Etudes she performs globally, and which inspired her to embark on a commissioning initiative, The Etudes Project.
She is the featured pianist in Elliot Goldenthal’s original motion picture score for Julie Taymor’s film, The Glorias, and the central figure in Cooking for Jenny by Felix Cabez for Elemental Films, a musical documentary portraying her journey to Spain, among other media appearances such as CBS Sunday Morning, NPR’s Performance Today.
Her discography numbers more than 50 recordings, ranging from the classic piano canon to modern milestones to Broadway songs. Her passion for education led her to create “Melody’s Mostly Musical Day,” a musical picture book for children told in classical piano pieces, which she developed into a multimedia concert that has toured the continent.
Jenny Lin is currently the Director of Music for The Phillips Collection in Washington, DC.
Please join Jenny for a reception following the concert. Decatur House Museum 748 Jackson Pl NW Washington, DC 20006.
