Seen as one of classical music’s brightest rising stars and winner of the Bronze Medal at the 2025 Van Cliburn Competition, Evren Ozel knocked us out last season when he accompanied Geneva Lewis. Known for his expressive, emotional playing and “refined restraint,” pianist Ozel takes the stage solo, fresh from a string of major orchestral appearances and the release of his debut Mozart album. His style is marked by nuance and an open-hearted connection with the audience. Don’t miss the opportunity to hear Ozel’s world-class technique.
