Loyola Presents: Asher Armstrong Guest Piano Masterclass & Recital

Join us for an inspiring afternoon & evening with guest lecturer and performer Asher Armstrong. 

Asher Armstrong has been described as “powerful, big-boned” (American Record Guide) and “graceful,
agile, and spontaneous” (Fanfare). He has performed widely across Europe and North America, with
recent recitals at the Penderecki Academy in Kraków, the Royal College of Music in London, and the
Royal Conservatory of Music in Toronto. His three solo albums feature works by Brahms, Busoni, and
late-Romantic virtuosos. A passionate advocate for overlooked and contemporary repertoire, Armstrong
has premiered works by Varvara Gaigerova and others. He currently teaches at the University of Toronto
and serves as an Advanced Examiner for the Royal Conservatory of Music.
