The concert features von Eccher and Glen Montgomery, both recognized as amongst Canada’s outstanding musicians. The concert will present an array of selections including solo, duet, and trio repertoire in a range of styles.

Tickets are $25 per adult ($20 for PEISO season subscribers) and $10 for students, and can be purchased online at pianoevent.bpt.me/.
