We are excited to have Allen Reiser from Calgary, Alberta, join Peter Walker, who resides in the Comox Valley, for a wonderful afternoon of classical piano. The Romance Composers, Brahms, Chopin, Liszt, and Rachmaninoff will feature in the program. Allen made his London (GB) debut in 1978 to great critical acclaim, especially after winning the Croyden Symphony Orchestra's Soloist Award. He has performed across Canada and the USA. Allen's recitals are a wide-ranging mix of standard works for piano plus a less frequent repertoire, with additional Canadian content. He has 2 CDs in circulation featuring sonatas and sonatinas. Allen is active throughout Western Canada as a performer, adjudicator and master class clinician.


Peter Walker holds two Associate Diplomas in Piano, as well as a BA from UBC and a M. Ed from the University of Calgary, with a specialization in music education. While in Alberta, he was awarded several silver medals from the Toronto Conservatory of Music. Peter's musical history includes being a regular CBC performer and in 1970, he was the winner of the CBC Talent Festival. He subsequently performed in the CBC Vancouver Symphony Orchestra. Peter enjoys playing a variety of composers and aims to bring a sense of joy and wonder to the music he plays.
