Jon Kimura Parker Performing Beethoven’s Five Beloved Piano Concertos

World-renowned pianist (and OICMF Artistic Advisor) Jon Kimura "Jackie" Parker will perform all five of Ludwig van Beethoven's Piano Concertos over two evenings beginning at the end of this month, and there are still seats available!

Join us at Orcas Center on June 30 and July 1 at 7:30pm.

The orchestral accompaniment will be played by the incredible Houston Symphony pianist Scott Holshouser.

We are very grateful to our sponsors for these concerts: Carl de Boor, Annie Moss Moore in memory of Richie Moore, Leslie Seaman, and Aloysia Friedmann in memory of Laila Storch.

Read all the details and get your tickets here. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to hear these magnificent works, all together, on Orcas Island. You don’t want to miss out!

Follow us on Facebook and Instagram for more fun and news as we head toward our 27th Season.

Updates on concerts, interviews with artists, OICMF fashion tips, and more!

We look forward to sharing more OICMF news and events with you — keep your eyes peeled for next month's Scherzo!
