Pianist SERGIO GALLO holds the Diplôme d’Excellence from the Conservatoire Européen de Musique (Paris), a Postgraduate Certificate from the Franz Liszt Academy (Budapest), a Masters from the University of Cincinnati, and a Doctorate from the University of California, Santa Barbara. He is professor of piano performance at Georgia State University, Atlanta, and is on the affiliated artist staff of the Rocky Ridge Music Academy (Estes Park, CO). He specializes in the Romantic and has championed the work of composers from his native Brazil. In addition to live appearances worldwide, he has recorded for Eroica, Naxos, Grand Piano, and Quartz. Critical acclaim for these albums has come from Gramophone, the BBC Music Magazine, and American Record Guide. In 2011 he for His "Mostly Villa-Lobos: 20th Century Piano Music from the Americas" won the 2011 Global Music Award of Excellence. A grant from the Henry Cowell Incentive Funds at the American Music Center (NYC) enabled him to record works by that composer. His recording of Beethoven’s Fragments and Piano Pieces (8.574131) is in the Beethoven Complete Edition, a 90-CD boxed set (Naxos 8.500250).

The mission of the The Frederick Collection of Historical Grand Pianos, ca. 1790-1928, is to acquaint musicians and the concert-going public with the sounds of pianos of the types, and often the makes, familiar to and played by the major composers. Begun in October 1985 by co-curators Michael and Patricia Frederick, Ashburnham, MA, these fall and spring Historical Piano Concerts feature standard piano, chamber, and vocal repertoire from the late 18th through the early 20th centuries. The series presents distinguished American and overseas musicians, many of whose names are familiar to our live and virtual audiences.
