The Artist

Pianist Robert Levin is one of America's leading keyboard players and a prominent musicologist and Mozart scholar.  He studied piano with Louis Martin and composition with Stefan Wolpe and Leon Kirchner and, while still a teenager, worked with the legendary teacher Nadia Boulanger in Paris.  He later studied at Harvard University and, upon graduation, joined the faculty of the Curtis Institute as head of the theory department.  He now occupies the chair of Dwight P. Robinson, Jr. Professor of the Humanities at Harvard University.  As a performer, Mr. Levin is also closely associated with the compositions of Mozart. He has completed several important compositions by Mozart as well, most notably the Requiem.  He has also recorded all the Beethoven concertos and has been an advocate for modern composers such as Harbison and Denisov.  For more information on Robert Levin visit www.music.fas.harvard.edu.
