We are delighted to welcome pianist Samuel Atkinson for the opening concert of our fall season. Samuel has studied classical piano since the age of three, performing in church services and recitals from early childhood. He holds a Bachelor of Arts in Music and a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Mount Union. Though he now works professionally as a design engineer, Samuel continues his musical studies with Dr. Maira Liliestedt in her studio, Keys to Artistry. His former teachers include Carla Hively, the late Robert Vandall, and his late grandmother, Dixie Smith.Samuel’s program spans centuries of keyboard literature, featuring works by J.S. Bach, Mozart, Pachelbel, Beethoven, Chopin, Scott Joplin, and Jerry Lee Lewis, along with sacred hymn arrangements and selections from Elton John and Billy Joel. It is a rare opportunity to enjoy a program that moves gracefully from Baroque counterpoint to Classical elegance, from ragtime brilliance to beloved hymns and iconic popular standards.
Admission is free; a free‑will offering will support our concert series. We hope you will join us for this joyful afternoon of music and community.
