The American pianist Sharon Stanley-Lex studied piano in her native Chicago, at the Musikhochschule in Frankfurt, Germany and also at the Conservatoire Royal in Brussels, Belgium. She has studied with eminent pianists and masters as Karl Engel, Julian von Karolyi, Jean-Claude Vanden Eynden, Philip Martin, Martin Roscoe, Bernard Roberts, Hervé Billaut and Daniel Blumenthal. She feels particularly indebted to John O’Conor in Dublin who has been her mentor since 2002. Sharon has given many concerts in Europe and the United States, and in Almaty, Kazakhstan. Her recital at St. Martin-in-the-Fields, London with cellist Maria Martinez was a highlight.

Tickets will be available at the door. Please call the church office at 631-473-0517 for ticket reservations.
