Classical Pianist ShiZ'ka Releases BRILLIANCE & FERVOR LIVE  Image

KeyMedia Group is proud to announce the release of ShiZ'ka's second album of solo piano performances, BRILLIANCE & FERVOR LIVE, featuring music from Scarlatti, Beethoven, Chopin, Rachmaninoff, and Prokofiev.

Recorded as a live streaming concert it was initially broadcast on June 20 at St. John's in the Village with MUSAE, KeyMedia Group, and ShiZ'ka producing the event. With the ongoing challenge in the arts, live streaming has helped to save the livelihood and state of mind of millions of musicians while providing a respite to audiences worldwide. The audience response to ShiZ'ka's concert, "dazzling performance," "a force of nature," "deeply moving to the point of shouting out brava in my own apartment!" describes the intensity in which the young pianist faces the present climate and future of live music. With the ongoing struggle in the classical community to engage new young audiences, ShiZ'ka 26, represents a new bold and vivacious group of up and coming female classical artists, serving as a beacon for young people to embrace classical music.

BRILLIANCE & FERVOR LIVE features twelve live tracks from the concert and was mixed and mastered by Janosch Roth in Lautstumm Studios in Germany with ShiZ'ka's manager Denise Marsa producing the album. BRILLIANCE & FERVOR LIVE is available starting today, on iTunes, Apple Music, Spotify, and most music outlets; being distributed by CD Baby.
