Her Schubert recitals demonstrated a rare ability to negotiate the composer's change of moods... managing such delicacy in differentiating shades and tones within individual phrases. It was playing of the greatest intelligence and musical integrity. (The Guardian)

The Artist

Born in London, Imogen Cooper has a long and distinguished international career as one of the most eloquent interpreters of the classical repertoire. Recent appearances in the U.S. with the New York Philharmonic and Boston Symphony — and debut recitals in San Francisco, Chicago, and New York — were uniformly lauded for their musical depth. A pianist of enormous range, Cooper has made numerous recordings and is especially known for the communicative power she brings to Beethoven and Schubert. Recently, she was awarded the C.B.E. (Commander of the Order of the British Empire) in the 2007 Queens New Year's Honors for her services to music.
