John Blacklow
John Blacklow, Associate Professor of Piano, and renowned violinist Jennifer Frautschi.
In 2014, Albany Records released a new recording, highly acclaimed by both Fanfare and American Record Guide, of the complete Sonatas for Violin and Piano by Robert Schumann, performed by John Blacklow, Associate Professor of Piano, and renowned violinist Jennifer Frautschi. Blacklow and Frautschi have performed together across the US and Europe, including renowned venues such as the Vienna Konzerthaus, Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, Wigmore Hall in London, and the Mozarteum in Salzburg.
“…[Frautschi and Blacklow] really get this music, and because of this they
deliver performances with both finesse and passion.
Not one phrase goes by without some detail striking the listener,
and the best part of it is that none of this sounds forced or artificial in feeling.”
