About this Event
“Mia is a rare combination of fun and virtuosic -! She’s Liberace and Jerry Lee Lewis wrapped up in a ballgown!” -Greg Stepanich, Miami Herald & Palm Beach Post
Originally from a town of 800 (now 799) people in rural Kansas, virtuoso pianist Mia Vassilev started playing the piano from the age of 3 and currently performs her retro stage shows, MIA: Keys on Fire!, and RHAPSODIC, nationally.
She holds degrees, awards and assistantships to the doctoral level from Kansas State University, the University of Cincinnati-College Conservatory of Music, and University of Miami’s Frost School of Music and was a New World Symphony piano fellow post-graduate.
Mia’s extensive and diverse background as a worldwide soloist, chamber musician, professor of piano, and opera accompanist for such companies as the Metropolitan Opera (NY), Glimmerglass Opera (NY), Florida Grand Opera, Cincinnati Opera, Opera Theatre and Music Festival of Lucca, Italy, and the American Institute of Musical Studies Festival in Graz, Austria, provides humourous anecdotes during her shows.
She has locally produced and directed epic 10-piano original shows under the auspices of Miami Piano Circle, which she founded and directed from 2011-2017.
Recordings include Several Times, [the chamber music of Dennis Kam], released by Navona Records, the Naxos album Del Caribe, Soy!, Ecstatic Records’ MIAMI GRANDS, and most recently, cover singles Stardust, Blue Moon, Sleepwalk, Moonlight Serenade, and two self-released solo albums, VELVET NIGHTNOTES and PIANO ON THE RUN!
