This program of solo piano music will be performed by Vincent Ip on Frances Glessner’s 1887 Steinway Model C “semi-concert” grand piano.

He has been recognized with numerous prizes at prestigious competitions, including a Medal of Honor at the Maria Canals International Piano Competition in Barcelona, Spain. Vincent runs a private teaching studio, is a faculty member at Northwestern University, and maintains an active performing career.
