This Thursday, January 27th, the classical pianist Simone Dinnerstein will perform a private concert for The Friends of The New Criterion at a handcrafted-piano showroom in Midtown, Manhattan. Ms. Dinnerstein’s new CD, "Bach: A Strange Dream," is #1 in Classical Music on Amazon. Not surprisingly, our event is oversubscribed, but if you want to be the first to hear about our future events, consider joining the Friends of The New Criterion. I encourage you to read more about the program here.

Ms. Dinnerstein appeared on WNYC’s “Soundcheck” yesterday to discuss and perform her new album. You can listen to that special segment below.
