Soloists & Piano

Great artists give free concerts at New England Conservatory—simply because they teach here.

Other opportunities to experience knockout performances by solo instrumentalists and singers include the piano department's Liszt celebration and Honors Concert, the concertos on most of our orchestral concerts, and other special programming.
