…Technical feats many pianists can’t even consider: varieties of touch, a huge dynamic range, and nuances of statement...Novacek’s contributions cannot be exaggerated.

Get Inside the Music
Join us for a pre-concert discussion
from the PAC Stage at 2 PM.
A musical journey through three sonic landscapes—the open prairies of America’s Shaker country, Grieg’s beloved Norwegian countryside and the feelings inspired in Beethoven on his walks through nature. Pianist John Novacek has been lauded on the stages of Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center and the Kennedy Center, and is a frequent guest at festivals in the U.S. and abroad, including the Mostly Mozart Festival, Aspen Music Festival, Caramoor, Chautauqua, SummerFest La Jolla and Switzerland’s Verbier Festival.
