Gabriela Montero

Air Date:
Heard On Midday Classics with Norman Gilliland

Pianist Gabriela Montero joined Norman in the studio to discuss her performances with the Madison Symphony Orchestra on January 18, 19, and 20 to play Jennifer Higdon’s Blue Cathedral, Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 1, and Dvorak’s Symphony No. 6.

Montero started playing the piano when she was 7-months-old. Despite having started playing the piano at such an early age, Montero says she has managed to maintain her love of the instrument by focusing on artistic projects rather than career driven motivations.
