Internationally Renowned Piano Duo Comes to Mount Desert Island
NORTHEAST HARBOR—On Friday, April 25th at 6:30 p.m. the Northeast Harbor Library will host renowned pianists Michael Coonrod and Danny Holt for a free performance of beloved classics by Mozart, Schubert, Brahms and more.
Dr. Michael Coonrod recently retired from almost five decades of teaching at Interlochen Arts Academy, where he shaped generations of young pianists. During that time, he earned his Doctor of Musical Arts in Performance from the Peabody Conservatory of Music in Baltimore, MD and has had an extensive performing and teaching career in several countries.
Danny Holt recently relocated from Southern California to East Machias, Maine, and was Coonrod's student more than 25 years ago. He is thrilled to welcome his former teacher to Maine for concerts this spring. Hailed as one of the “local heroes” of the Los Angeles music scene (LAcitybeat.com), Holt performs around the globe in concert halls, clubs, art galleries, churches, living rooms, and wherever else he can find a piano and someone to listen.
