Mitzi Meyerson

Harpsichordist Mitzi Meyerson performed works J.S. Bach, Couperin, Purcell and Rameau in the Library's Coolidge Auditorium. Meyerson performs on Landowska's Pleyel, part of the Library's Wanda Landowska Collection, making this a fitting home for an intimate recital by a distinguished harpsichordist who continues Landowska's legacy as a pedagogue and consummate performer.
