The Ross McKee Foundation presents Devilish Inspirations: Summoning Witches, Demons, and Black Magic at the Piano. Edwin Outwater, Music Director at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music, and legendary drag queen/horror icon Peaches Christ will host the online benefit, taking audiences on a chilling tour of the piano repertoire’s darkest and most haunting moments. The streaming event is composed of a series of unique music videos created by celebrated Bay Area pianists, including Allegra Chapman, Brent Smith, Daniel Glover, Dee Spencer, Jeffrey LaDeur with Kindra Scharich (mezzo-soprano), Keisuke Nakagoshi, Ryan Sheng, Sarah Cahill, and Solomon Ge. Proceeds from Devilish Inspirations go directly to the Ross McKee Foundation, which promotes the piano in the Bay Area through grants, scholarships, performance opportunities, and a nationally recognized piano competition for young artists.
