SOHEIL NASSERI

Soheil Nasseri has been described by The New York Times as "a compelling recitalist,” “consistently interesting,” with “a vivid imagination.” A protégé of Karl Ulrich Schnabel and Jerome Lowenthal, he has also been described by The New Yorker as “one of New York’s most prolific recitalists,” having presented nineteen different recital programs in New York since 2001. In addition to his busy recital schedule, one of Mr. Nasseri’s foremost interests is his inner-city public school music education program, which has offered concerts at more than sixty public schools in the U.S. since 2003.
