Pianist Haskell Small To Perform Goldberg Variations in New York on
September 17 at Faust Harrison Pianos

New York, NY - Jeffrey James Arts Consulting will present a concert
featuring internationally renowned pianist Haskell Small performing J.S.
Bach's immortal Goldberg Variations on Friday, September 17, 8 PM at
Faust Harrison Pianos, 205 W.  58th Street, just west of 7th Avenue in
New York City.

The concert will feature Mr. Small's superb interpretation of the
Goldberg Variations, and will introduce his new 4Tay Records (CD 4028)
release of the work.  This CD also features Mr. Small's own 25 Preludes
(which is, in part, structurally modeled after the Goldberg Variations)
and will join his other critically acclaimed 4Tay release The Twisted
Pine Branch.  For more information about these disks, please visit

Hailed by England's Musical Times for his "dazzlingly prodigious technique",
Haskell Small first came to public attention after winning the Pittsburgh
Concert Society auditions at the age of 21.

A recipient of a solo recitalist grant from the National Endowment for
the Arts and a semifinalist in the Johann Sebastian Bach International
Piano Competition, Mr. Small's concerts throughout the United States,
including Carnegie Hall, Alice Tully Hall, National Gallery of Art, the
Kennedy Center, and the Spoleto Festival have won him an enthusiastic
following.  Mr. Small was featured in the PBS television special A
Celebration of the Piano, taped at Wolf Trap.  In recent seasons, Mr.
Small has made several tours of Japan and performed recitals in Paris
and London.

Following Small's premiere performance, Tim Page of The Washington Post
lauded the composer's Symphony for Solo Piano as a serious and substantial
composition that deserves a permanent place in the keyboard repertory."
The composer's recording of Symphony for Solo Piano has also received
wonderful reviews, including from Records International at
