PianoForte Foundation

PianoForte provides performance opportunities and much-needed exposure to exceptional pianists emerging on the national and international scene, and continues to feature some of Chicago’s favorite and best-known artists in an intimate setting. We facilitate interaction between artists and audience during performances, ensuring that audience members have personal, engaging learning experiences and leave with a heightened appreciation for piano music. We seek high caliber professionals who perform repertoire from Baroque to Contemporary and Jazz and exhibit great variety in our programming. The Foundation broadcasts lunch hour concerts the first Friday of every month on 98.7 WFMT, Chicago's Fine Arts Station, and occasional special broadcasts on 90.9 WDCB, Chicago's only jazz station.
