The Music House welcomes back pianist and singer, Peter Bergin on Aug. 26th at 7 pm. Not only is he a cherished member of our musical family but he has become one of our audience’s favorite performers. Over the past few years as he has led our guests through a musical walk through all of our glorious pianos. This year he is offering something even more fun, along with his wonderful Ragtime concert, he will be ending the evening with a sing-a-long of the great American songbook!

 

 

 

Michigan-based ragtime artist, Peter Bergin, has entertained audiences for over two decades. Peter’s mission is to celebrate life through music and stories, and especially loves sharing the rhythms and history of ragtime piano. Classically trained, Peter embarked on a full-time music career after twenty-four years in computer software. There isn’t a day he regrets this decision! In 2017, Peter debuted his first solo CD, Ragtime In Time, featuring the Big Three of classic ragtime, Scott Joplin, James Scott, and Joseph Lamb. Last summer, Peter debuted a new crossover project, Gottschalk to Gershwin, exploring the intersection of ragtime and American classical music, featuring Louis Moreau Gottschalk, George Gershwin, Scott Joplin, Eubie Blake, among others. Peter is widely sought-after for school assemblies, libraries, museums, retirement homes, and community concert venues. Playing in the heart of community brings Peter immense joy and satisfaction. He looks forward to bringing ragtime to audiences everywhere as a testament to America’s original music.
