Sarah Bob, piano, hailed as “sumptuous and eloquent” by the Boston Globe and that “dynamic player…superstar” (National Sawdust), is an active soloist and chamber musician noted for her charismatic performances, colorful playing and diverse programming. A strong advocate for new music and considered a “trailblazer when it comes to championing the works of modern composers and combining art media in the process…” (Northeast Performer), she is the founding director of the New Gallery Concert Series, devoted to commissioning and uniting new music and contemporary visual art with their creators.
