The Charlene Larson Center for the Performing Arts welcomes pianist, Jennifer Goodenberger, in a concert of her original compositions, Sunday, October 1 at 3:00 pm.
Goodenberger is well known to local audiences. She gave her first concert at the CLC in 1979 and has gone on to perform many concerts there over the intervening years. However, her last concert as a solo pianist at the CLA was in 2016, and her last concert of original compositions in 2009.
In addition to performing her solo piano compositions, Jennifer will be joined by her niece, soprano, Noelle Goodenberger, performing vocal compositions premiered by Noelle’s parents, also musicians, in 1989.
Not only will this concert include original compositions, but it is also a CD release concert for her newest recording, “Sound Within.” This CD was created especially for yoga, meditation, and healing. As part of the concert, Jennifer will discuss the different techniques she used to craft the music. She will be joined by yoga instructor, Sally Anderson, who will demonstrate yoga poses inspired by the music.
Known for the elegance of her playing, and her sensitive and expressive performances, Jennifer’s intimate and contemplative piano solos are an introspective journey into one’s soul. Her original works range from deeply healing and spiritual compositions to passionate and romantic creations, and are a mesmerizing fusion of classical, improvisational, and contemporary styles. She has previously released 8 solo piano CDs. Her recordings are often used in the healing arts, and as film soundtracks.
Tickets are $20 and available online at www.partnersforthe pac.org or at the door.
