-------- VICTOR ROSENBAUM, PIANIST -------------------------------------------

"At a time when the worst elements of humanity -- religious and territorial  
hostilities, cruelty and barbarism -- seem to be in full display across the  
globe, it is worth being reminded that humanity has a higher and more noble  
side. Music celebrates that higher and more noble side and can elevate and  
inspire the human spirit. The concerts in the *Music for Peace* series give  
us a chance to commune with our higher aspirations and, at the same time, to  
support efforts to build a more just and peaceful world. I hope you will join  
us for the 2014-15 season."
                         -- /*Victor Rosenbaum*/

American pianist *Victor Rosenbaum *has concertized widely as soloist and  
chamber music performer in the United States, Europe, Asia, Israel, and  
Russia in such prestigious halls as Tully Hall in New York and the Hermitage  
in St. Petersburg, Russia.  He has collaborated with such artists as Leonard  
Rose, Paul Katz, Arnold Steinhardt, Robert Mann, Joseph Silverstein, Malcolm  
Lowe, and the Brentano, Borromeo, and Cleveland String Quartets.  Festival  
appearances have included Tanglewood, the Rockport Chamber Music Festival,  
Kfar Blum and Tel Hai (in Israel), Yellow Barn, Kneisel Hall (Blue Hill),  
Musicorda, Masters de Pontlevoy (France), the Heifetz Institute, the  
International Keyboard Institute and Festival in New York, the International  
Music Seminar in Vienna, and the Bowdoin International Music Festival.   
Concert appearances have brought him to Chicago, Minneapolis, Tokyo, Beijing,  
St. Petersburg (Russia), Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, New York and Boston, among  
others.

A student of Elizabeth Brock and Martin Marks in his hometown of  
Indianapolis, Rosenbaum later studied with Rosina Lhevinne, at the Aspen  
Festival, and with Leonard Shure, while earning degrees at Brandeis and  
Princeton Universities.   Rosenbaum serves on the faculty of the New  
England Conservatory in Boston, where he formerly chaired the piano and  
chamber music departments, and the Mannes College of Music in New York.  He  
has been Visiting Professor of Piano at the Eastman School of Music, a guest  
teacher at Juilliard, and presents lectures, workshops, and master classes  
for teachers’ groups and schools both in the U. S. and abroad, including  
London’s Royal Academy of Music, Royal College of Music, and Guildhall  
School, the conservatories of St. Petersburg and Moscow, Beijing Central  
Conservatory, the Toho School in Tokyo and other institutions such as the  
Menuhin School, and the Jerusalem Music Center.  Rosenbaum was Director and  
President of the Longy School of Music from 1985-2001.

His highly praised recording of Schubert is on /Bridge Records/ and the  
release of the last three Beethoven sonatas on the same label was named by  
American Record Guide critic Alan Becker as one of the top ten classical  
recordings of 2005.*  *Two discs* *on the /Fleur de Son/ label feature  
music of Schubert and  Mozart.

Rosenbaum is Music Director of the Music for Peace Concert Series.
