Paul Bisaccia is one of the most entertaining pianists performing today, with fans and critical acclaim on four continents. He has made a particular specialty of the music of George Gershwin, although his repertoire and musical interests are wide ranging including concerts devoted to Liszt, Chopin and Beethoven. He was the first artist to record the complete solo piano music of Gershwin and his PBS television special “Gershwin by Bisaccia” has been broadcast throughout the U.S. and seen by millions. The program was also dubbed into Mandarin Chinese for broadcast in Asia. The American Record Guide says, “For Gershwin interpretations Bisaccia wins hands down.” Popular recording and cabaret star Michael Feinstein reacted to Bisaccia’s Gershwin television program by saying “How wonderful! It just proves that talent always prevails in these times of mediocrity.”

Bisaccia is a protégé of renowned Brazilian pianist Luiz de Moura Castro and is a summa cum laude graduate of the Hartt School of Music where he ranked highest in his graduating class. He made his European debut at age 17 and has returned to perform in Romania, in Germany, to participate in the International Symposium on Musical Interpretation in Spain, and to perform in Switzerland and Rome. He has also made several performance tours in South America and Asia. In the United States Bisaccia has been featured on NPR’s Performance Today and in showcase performances for the American Liszt Society. His music is also featured in the acclaimed Ric Burns television documentary “New York”. He has become the most frequently requested pianist by listeners of beethoven.com and his most recent special for Public Television, “Paul Bisaccia and the Great American Piano” has been hailed by the critics as “another sure-fire winner.” [/one_half][one_half_last padding=”0 0px 0 0″][/one_half_last]
