Hailed for his prodigious technique and praised by The Washington Post for an “unusually fresh and arresting approach to the piano,” pianist Michael Adcock has cultivated a versatile career as soloist, chamber musician, and pre-concert lecturer. Adcock gave his Carnegie Weill Recital Hall debut in December of 1998. Adcock earned MM, artist diploma, and DMA from Peabody Conservatory, where he studied with Leon Fleisher and Ellen Mack, and was adjunct faculty in theory and chamber music. Adcock took his BM from Oberlin College-Conservatory and attended secondary school at North Carolina School of the Arts. He is currently associate piano faculty at Sarasota Music Festival, a faculty member of Washington Conservatory in Bethesda, MD, and artistic director of the UU Chalice Concert Series in Columbia, MD.
