Timothy Hoft

Nevada School of the Arts

Dr. Timothy Hoft is an Associate Professor at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, where he teaches solo and collaborative piano. A pianist of unique versatility, Timothy Hoft has been praised for his recent performances. “Hoft’s objective approach to performing new music was especially successful…[his] precise control of dynamics and quiet approach to the keyboard with a perfect technique led to a beautiful, automatic sense of music making…” (Michael Lodico, Ionarts.org).  His debut CD, Reflections on Ukrainian Piano Music Vol. I, has also been favorably reviewed.  “Here is piano music that needs to be known, piano music that abounds with visceral vibrancy and expressive intensity, not to mention being skillfully and subtly wrought for the instrument. Timothy Hoft’s ardent and caring virtuosity is captured in superb, lifelike sonics. You can’t ask for a more auspicious start to what promises to be an important series.”
