Emily Bear at Musical Instrument Museum

About

7:30pm – 9:30pm. At age thirteen, pianist Emily Bear is one of the most astonishing and prolific musical talents of our time, composing, orchestrating, and performing in an astonishingly diverse collection of styles. Bear also loves composing for film and TV. She has released six CDs of original music, with her most recent, Diversity, produced by Quincy Jones for Concord Music. “She’s the most delightful human being I’ve ever met in my life,” Quincy says. “And her music is the same way. I am at once astounded and inspired by the enormous talent that Emily embodies. With the ability to seamlessly move from classical to jazz and be-bop, she shows as much musical prowess as pianists/composers twice her age, and I am thrilled to be working with her."
