Music Professor Mark Mazullo will perform a concert titled “Prisms – A Program of Piano Music,” at 11 a.m. Friday, September 27, 2024, at The Kenwood Senior Living, 825 Summit Ave, Minneapolis. The public is warmly welcome to attend the free event.Mazullo is a professor in the Music Department at Macalester College, Minneapolis, where he has been teaching music history and piano since 1999. He holds a Ph.D. in Musicology from the University of Minnesota and a Master of Music degree from the Peabody Conservatory of the Johns Hopkins University.
“I grew up playing the piano in the nursing homes where my mother worked as a nurse,” he said. “I honor her legacy of caring for others by continuing to play at places like The Kenwood when I get the opportunity.”
At The Kenwood concert, he will perform a run-through of a concert he is performing in Bogotá, Colombia in October. The concert will include the music of Domenico Scarlatti, Frederic Chopin, Sergei Prokofiev, and Johann Sebastian Bach.
“Professor Mazullo brings the perfect mix of classical music and educational biographies of the composers he plays,” said Brandy Rhodes. “It's great music and a really fun history lesson!”
Mazullo performs frequently in solo, chamber, and concerto settings. He often performs with students, most recently in works including the Piano Quintet of Dmitri Shostakovich, the Fantasy in F Minor for piano four-hands by Franz Schubert, and the Sonata for Flute and Piano by Sergei Prokofiev.
Recent performances include Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 4 and Prokofiev’s Piano Concerto No. 1 with the Civic Orchestra of Minneapolis.
He served on the board of the Frederic Chopin Society of Minnesota which hosts several international pianists each year in solo concerts held at Macalester College. In addition, he served on the nationally elected Board of Directors of the College Music Society.
