JOE MOHAN
2010-2011 75th Anniversary Celebration!
Dubbed a “rising star” by the Columbia Free Times, Joe
Mohan aims to use his music to connect past, present, and
future generations. Most recently, he was selected as a finalist
in the Eastman Young Artists International Piano Competition
and in April 2010 he won “BPO Idol with Marvin Hamlisch.”
This upcoming year, Joe will perform twice with the Buffalo
Philharmonic Orchestra as a part of their 2010 season and
with the Ocean City Pops Orchestra.
As a solo artist, Joe has performed throughout North America. In
addition, he has performed piano concertos with the Pittsburgh
Symphony, the Rochester Philharmonic, the South Carolina
Philharmonic, and the Greater Buffalo Youth Orchestra. His
solo recitals include a guest performance at the Thousand Islands International Chopin Piano
Competition for Young People, a special concert entitled “Music and a Message” for the
Niagara Lutheran Health Foundation, a recital as a part of the Ocean City Tabernacle’s
annual summer concert schedule, and a pre-concert performance for the Amherst Symphony
Orchestra. Joe has won numerous piano competitions as well as achieving two Awards of
Excellence from Clarence High School and the Eastman Community Music School Director’s
Award. He was one of six students featured on the PBS Documentary, PIANO FORTE.
In addition to his piano studies, Joe plans to continue his interest in arranging, composing,
and conducting. He is presently pursuing a Bachelors degree at The Juilliard School studying
Classical Piano with Seymour Lipkin.
