Pianist Alexander Paley, a winner of the 2006 "French Grammy," Les Victoires de la Musique classique, is widely recognized for his extensive repertoire of concerti and solo piano works, his dazzling technical prowess, and his convincing, personal interpretations. The Washington Post called Paley's 1991 debut with the National Symphony a "flawless performance," and since then he has garnered similar accolades for performances with orchestras throughout the world including the Los Angeles Philharmonic, Boston Pops, Aspen Festival Orchestra, Minnesota Orchestra, and the St. Louis, San Diego, Utah, Colorado, Milwaukee, Seattle, and Syracuse Symphony Orchestras, Orchestre National de France, NDR Orchestra of Leipzig and the Montecarlo Philharmonic Orchestra among many others.
Born in Kishiniev, Moldavia, Paley won major awards, including First Prize at the Leipzig International Bach Competition, the Bösendorfer Prize, and the Grand Prix at the First International Pancho Vladigerov Competition in Bulgaria. He maintains an active year-long schedule as a recitalist and soloist throughout eastern and western Europe including appearances at the Grandes Interprètes series in Lyon, the Leipzig Gewandhaus and the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam. The year 2008 marked the seventeenth anniversary of Mr. Paley's own music festival at the Moulin d'Andé in Normandy, France.
Parking is on-street on Massachusetts and Western Avenues and in the parking lot of Westmoreland Congregational UCC church.
