Sarah Hagen presents
Sarah Hagen in Concert
Friday, November 25th @7:30 PM |
 |
Pianist Sarah Hagen returns to the Sid stage for an evening of exquisite solo piano music. Well-loved by local audiences, Sarah will perform Beethoven’s Les Adieux sonata, Debussy’s Estampes and Chopin’s 24 Preludes.
“A rarity of musical excellence, technical ease and tonal purity," pianist Sarah Hagen is a sought-after soloist and chamber musician, performing in concerts across Canada as well as in the United States, France, Italy, Germany and Sweden. Her interpretations have been described as “outstandingly inventive,” performed with “infinite skill.”
A visionary and an idealist, Sarah's performances are conceptually innovative, involving photography, dance and theatre. She is also an avid collaborator, reveling in the friendships and stimulation that abound in chamber music. As a concert presenter and producer, Miss Hagen frequently hosts world class performers from Canada. Europe, Australia and the United States. She has been on faculty at the Comox Valley Youth Music Centre for over 10 years, performing in the CYMC Summer Festival with Russell Bajer, Yariv Aloni and Victor Costanzi, among others. While Sarah travels regularly for performances in Europe, she also delights in playing with the premier Canadian ensemble, Trio Accord.

Miss Hagen has been heard on Swedish Radio 2, CBC Radio 1 and 2, WDAV (North Carolina) WOSU (Ohio), KFUO (Missouri), CKUA (Edmonton), WKAR (Michigan), WITF (Pennsylvania), 98.1 KING FM (Seattle) and has appeared on Bravo Television. Her solo album, Glass House Dancing, was nominated for Classical Recording of the Year at the 2009 Western Canadian Music Awards.
Sarah’s motivation is the belief that music has the power to be a window into our souls regardless of age or knowledge. She currently makes her home and studio in a loft in Vancouver.
“Her Bach and Haydn were outstandingly inventive – this is a young woman ready to take interpretive risks.” - University of Waterloo Gazette
“Exquisite phrasing and a refreshingly imaginative approach make her one to watch.” - Marcia Adair, TheOmniscientMussel.com
