Lise de la Salle (Piano/Herbst)

A powerful and intense pianist, Lise de la Salle has boldly maintained a youthful fire in the course of a fast-paced 20-year career. This seemingly boundless energy and drive are burnished with maturity and focus that make her a compelling interpreter worth hearing again and again. “For much of the concert, the audience had to remember to breathe…the exhilaration didn’t let up for a second until her hands came off the keyboard” (Washington Post).
