New Classical Tracks – Orli Shaham

Pianist Orli Shaham and members of the Pacific Symphony: American Tapestry (Pacific Symphony record label)

Pianist Orli Shaham was recently in St. Paul, Minnesota, to co-host the national radio program From the Top. That’s just one of the many hats Orli Shaham wears in the world of classical music. She’s a concert pianist, she serves on the faculty for both piano and chamber music at the Juilliard School of Music, and for the past 18 years she’s collaborated with the Pacific Symphony in Costa Mesa, California. Her new recording, American Tapestry, features her and a chamber ensemble made up of members of the symphony. Find out more on New Classical Tracks, with host Julie Amacher.
