Voted “Best Keyboardist of
All Time” (Music Radar
Magazine), virtuoso musician/composer Jordan Rudess is on a solo
piano tour, FROM BACH TO ROCK. Rudess’ concert will travel through his
fascinating musical journey – how a young Juilliard piano prodigy destined for
a Classical music career evolved into a keyboard Rock star phenomenon. The
concert will feature the music of Dream Theater and other Rock classics
reimagined for the piano.
Jordan Rudess explains the
tour, “Many of my fans only know me as a Progressive Rock keyboardist but piano
is where it all started for me. Sitting at the piano has always felt like the
most natural way for me to express my musicality. This tour is bringing me to
some of the biggest and most exciting markets for Dream Theater. I’m really
excited to share this acoustic evening with some of the most supportive fans in
the world.”
“Calling Jordan Rudess a
legend is an understatement” -Keyboard
Magazine
“Jordan Rudess has journeyed
from the depths of tradition to the ever-expanding outer limits of musical
possibility, inviting listeners along for the ride. The results are, unsurprisingly,
consistently beyond world-class.” –The
Musical Melting Pot
