The Music Program of the Visual and Performing Arts Department at Saint Louis University proudly presents Kariné Poghosyan, piano in concert.“There’s such a sense of joy, even ecstasy as she plays.” This is how NY1’s Stephanie Simon describes the Armenian-American concert pianist Kariné Poghosyan’s performances.
Ms. Poghosyan’s recent concerts include recitals at Musikverein and Ehrbar Saal in Vienna, Casa Armena in Milan, Chicago Cultural Center, the Sheldon in Saint Louis, the Soraya Performing Arts Center in Northridge, California, and several sold-out recitals at Carnegie Hall, including a Release concert of her “Rachmaninoff and Stravinsky” CD. This recording has garnered rave reviews, with Gramophone Magazine praising its “masterly textural layering and resounding climaxes,” and the American Record Guide stating that “a more heroic program would be hard to find, and few could play as well as the Armenian-American Poghosyan.” She was also featured on WQXR and was interviewed by David Osenberg on his award-winning program on WWFM, Cadenza. The renown pianist and WWFM radio host Jed Distler described her performance in the following way, “This is big piano playing, but big in the sense of being in the moment, being present, and totally owning her vitality and imagination.”
Ms. Poghosyan’s exhilarating 2024-25 season includes Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue with the Wallingford Symphony Orchestra, and solo recitals in Wisconsin, Chicago, and a return to Carnegie Hall on June 10, for an all-Khachaturian program.
