Join us in celebrating George Peabody’s 230th birthday with live music! Enjoy works from Beethoven, Bach, Chopin, and more from classically trained pianist, Charisse Nocera. Birthday cake and other refreshments will be served at intermission. This event will take place on Thursday, Feb. 20 from 7 p.m.-8 p.m. in the Sutton Room.
Charisse Nocera started playing piano when she was 8 years old. Her passion for music has carried her to places such as Carnegie Hall, where she performed for four consecutive years after winning the Crescendo International Competition. Charisse received a scholarship from UMass Lowell to study music, where she received her bachelor’s degree in piano performance in 2018. During her time at university, Charisse received the Joan K Rossi scholarship every year, and upon graduation was the recipient of the music department’s award for performance. She has collaborated with musicians of all genres, including Grammy Award winner Melissa Manchester, who personally asked Charisse to open for her concert tour.
