Don’t miss the 33rd annual Professional Pianist Concerts, a collaborative production by the Ukiah Community Concert Association and Spencer Brewer, and a benefit for the Mendocino College Recording Arts Club, the Allegro Scholarship Program, and the Ukiah Community Concert Association.

This utterly fun and stimulating series features the finest regional pianists inviting you into their onstage “living room” and, throughout the performance, trading stories and melodies with two pianos on stage to accommodate impromptu collaborations.

The event is legendary and an annual sellout because of the diversity and quality of a multitude of styles of music, spiced with humor throughout the show.
