FREE BEETHOVEN CONCERT
POP-UP PIANO IN KILMER PARK

(Bronx, NY) – World-famous pianist, Emir Gamsizoglu, will perform Beethoven in Joyce Kilmer Park, (161st. & Grand Concourse) Wednesday, June 29 at 4 & 6 PM. The free concert, Drama in Beethoven, will feature his sonatas.
The concert will be given on a Pop-Up Piano which has been placed in the park by Sing for Hope. It is one of 88 pianos placed by the group around New York City in public plazas, squares and parks. The Bronx has eleven.
As it was last year, the 161st Street Business Improvement District is the local ‘piano buddy’ for its duration in Kilmer. The Spinet is being unlocked daily until July 1 and will be accessible to anyone – amateur or professional – who wants to tickle the keys.
To schedule a performance, contact the BID at (718) 590-5433.
