The Lilacs begins its new season on Saturday, September 26, with a private recital by pianist Michael Davidman, the winner of the 2025 American Piano Awards and Christel DeHaan Fellowship, in our home in New York City, followed by drinks and dessert with the pianist.

Full program, biography and video: see here.

The recital takes place in a private residence in Manhattan. The exact address is sent to you with your ticket confirmation.

As always, 100% of the proceeds go to the pianist. The minimum donation to attend the recital is $60. To meet the pianist, please come to the optional post-recital drinks and dessert reception starting at 9pm. To attend the post-recital reception, make sure to select the appropriate option.

To help us manage attendees, one donation “ticket” per person please (as opposed to a single donation for multiple people in a group).
