Don't miss this concert by the superb pianist Zlata Chochieva performing works by Frederic Chopin. This event marks the beginning of an international piano competition hosted at the UTEP Department of Music. Free and open to the public.

Writing in Gramophone of Zlata Chochieva's sensational recording of the Chopin Etudes, being included in Gramophone's list of 10 greatest Chopin recordings, critic Jeremy Nicholas exclaimed, “it is certainly one of the most consistently inspired, masterfully executed and beautiful-sounding versions I can recall.”
Zlata Chochieva was born in Moscow and now resides in Berlin. A protege of Mikhail Pletnev at Central Special Music School, she also studied with Pavel Nersessian at Moscow State Conservatory.
