Ronald Hawkins, American Pianist
It seems that I am on a J.S. Bach rampage this week and yesterday I went to St. Martin in the Fields to partake in their free lunchtime concert program. The church is going renovation and recently opened again last week, they have a fantastic line up of musical programs to delight any music afficionado.
We were treated to the exciting and skillful rendition of the Goldberg Variations by J.S. Bach played by American pianist Ronald Hawkins. He gave an outstanding 45 minute performance, every note was like a soothing vibration for the soul. The variations are one of my favorite pieces by Bach and I think each piece is a practice in piano technique and a challenge for the pianist. Hawkins was nothing short of masterful and I highly recommend his work to any piano enthusiast. If you want more information on Ronald Hawkins, you can visit http://www.ronaldhawkins.com/.
