About Awadagin Pratt
Join classical pianist Awadagin Pratt for an afternoon of piano music that spans four centuries of the greatest piano literature. The program includes works from the Baroque master François Couperin, pieces by the most well-known Romantic composers including Rachmaninoff, Chopin and Tchaikovsky, as well as contemporary pieces by Philip Glass, Peteris Vasks and jazz great Fred Hersh. The entire second half of the recital is a performance of one of the greatest virtuoso masterpieces in the piano literature, Franz Liszt’s Sonata in B minor.
Among his generation of concert artists, pianist Awadagin Pratt is acclaimed for his musical insight and intensely involving performances in recital and with symphony orchestras.
Mr. Pratt studied at the Peabody Conservatory of Music where he became the first student in the school’s history to receive diplomas in three performance areas – piano, violin and conducting.
In 1992, Mr. Pratt won the Naumburg International Piano Competition and two years later was awarded an Avery Fisher Career Grant. Since then, he has played numerous recitals throughout the US including performances at Lincoln Center, the Kennedy Center and Chicago’s Orchestra Hall. His many orchestral performances include appearances with the New York Philharmonic and the Atlanta, Baltimore, St. Louis and Detroit symphonies among many others. Also an experienced conductor, his most recent conducting activities include play/conducting the Chamber Orchestra of Pittsburgh and conducting performances of Porgy and Bess for the Greensboro Opera.
Mr. Pratt is currently a Professor of Piano at the College-Conservatory of Music at the University of Cincinnati as well as the Artistic Director of the Art of the Piano Festival. In July 2023, he joins the faculty of the San Francisco Conservatory of Music as Professor of Piano.
Through the Art of the Piano Foundation and inspired by a stanza from T. S. Eliot’s Four Quartets, Mr. Pratt has commissioned seven composers – Jessie Montgomery, Alvin Singleton, Judd Greenstein, Tyshawn Sorey, Jonathan Bailey Holland, Paola Prestini and Peteris Vasks – to compose works for piano and string orchestra or piano, string orchestra and a Roomful of Teeth. Ms. Montgomery’s concerto was performed by a consortium of nine US orchestras including the St. Louis, Baltimore, Milwaukee and Indianapolis symphonies, in the spring of 2022. All seven works were recorded in summer 2022 with the chamber orchestra A Far Cry for New Amsterdam Records. During the 22/23 season, Mr. Pratt performs this concerto with 13 more orchestras, including Boston, Chicago, Minnesota and Atlanta.
Awadagin Pratt is a Yamaha artist. For more information, please visit www.awadagin.com.

About the Joel Zelnik Trio
Young pianist Joel Zelnik met the legendary pianist Bill Evans in the mid-1960s when they alternated sets at Greenwich Village’s Top of the Gate. “I have never forgotten sharing the stage with the great Bill Evans,” Zelnik says. “He had such an impact on me as a young man, and his approach to jazz was so influential.”

Evans, who was born in Plainfield, NJ, is considered one of the most important and influential jazz pianists of all time. Zelnik, born in Elizabeth, has been appearing in New York and New Jersey jazz clubs for more than 50 years. His trio includes bassist Gary Mazzaroppi and drummer David Cox.

About Chris Ruggiero
Chris Ruggiero’s all new-show is the perfect kick-off to the summer, jam-packed with feel good sun-drenched vibes and priceless musical memories! If you remember songs like “California Dreamin’,” “My Girl,” “Groovin’” and “Wouldn’t it Be Nice,” you’ll be in the right place at the right time when Chris brings his “Summer Serenade” to the Grunin Center stage. You might know him from his PBS-TV performances, his appearance on Good Morning America or from one of his prior concerts in Sellersville. Chris tells his incredible story by breathing new life into the timeless music of the 60s & 70s with his über-talented band – complete with a touch of live brass just like in the old days.
Many of his unique arrangements have been crafted with the magic touch of Four Seasons arranger and pop-rock legend Charlie Calello (who is also a fan, commenting, “It’s been a long time since I heard a voice like this.”) Chris’s show will leave you feeling sun-kissed long after he leaves the stage. PS: If you know Chris from his previous albums and shows, don’t worry, he’ll be singing favorites like “Unchained Melody” and “Betcha By Golly Wow” as well.
“Songs you know and love from a voice you’ll never forget.” – BroadwayWorld
“Chris is what I call ‘the ultimate entertainer.’ I love his voice!” – Darlene Love
“Chris is so good at making the classics his own. I went to his show and loved every minute.” – Bill Medley of the Righteous Brothers

About Twinkle

Described as “like Lady Gaga for kids,” with a super pop sound mixed with a touch of Broadway belt, a sparkling soupçon of hip hop, and plenty of EDM glam, Twinkle has always danced to the beat of her own drum, breaking barriers, sound and otherwise, with both her music and Harajuku-style presentation.

Launched by a childhood saturated with the sound and fury of Top 40 artists like Madonna, Lady Gaga, Gloria Estefan, Michael Jackson, Prince, Selena, Cher, and Shania Twain, Twinkle has forever experienced a gravitational pull in the direction of performers who create the “whole package,” from their infectious melodies and distinctive vocal qualities to their show-stopping presentations and trademark looks. With her own award-winning albums, raise-the-roof concerts, and one-of-a-kind costuming and make-up, Twinkle follows suit, dazzling kids and families nationwide.

Twinkle grew up onstage in show business, performing as a child and teen in L.A. doing TV, musical theatre playing Bielke in Fiddler on the Roof at the age of seven, as a tween, she was a series regular in the first Spanish family comedy, Sanchez of Bel-Air, for the Paramount/USA network, and she also had a recurring role on NBC’s My Two Dads. At 16 years of age right out of high school Twinkle packed her bags to rock out in Jesus Christ Superstar with Ted Neeley and the late Carl Anderson touring the country and Canada in the National Broadway Tour. Twinkle has also done numerous national commercials and voiceovers in both English and Latin markets including the singing voice for the Bratz doll commercials.

About Dan Buettner
Dan Buettner is an explorer, National Geographic Fellow, award-winning journalist and producer, and New York Times bestselling author. He discovered the five places in the world – dubbed blue zones hotspots – where people live the longest, healthiest lives. His articles about these places in The New York Times Magazine and National Geographic are two of the most popular for both publications.
Buettner now works in partnership with municipal governments, large employers, and health insurance companies to implement Blue Zones Projects in communities, workplaces, and universities. Blue Zones Projects are well-being initiatives that apply lessons from the Blue Zones to entire communities by focusing on changes to the local environment, public policy, and social networks. The program has dramatically improved the health of more than 5 million Americans to date.
In his new book The Blue Zones Secrets for Living Longer, Buettner returns to Sardinia, Italy; Ikaria, Greece; Okinawa, Japan; Costa Rica’s Nicoya Peninsula; and Loma Linda, California to check in on the super-agers living in the blue zones and interprets the not-so-secret sauce of purpose, faith, community, down-time, natural movement, and plant-based eating that has powered as many as 10 additional years of healthy living in these regions. And Buettner reveals an all-new Blue Zone—the first man-made Blue Zone yet explored.
Buettner also holds three Guinness World Records in distance cycling.
The cost of tickets for this program has been generously underwritten by the sponsors of the Blauvelt Speaker Series.
The Blauvelt Speaker Series is funded in part by the generosity of the late Bradford Thomas & Eleanor G. Blauvelt and the Wintrode Family Foundation.
