Steinway Artist, pianist and composer Chad Lawson is a modern-day master of reinvention: his bold interpretation of the classics, electronic loops and atmospherics resonate with EDM fans and Neo-classical traditionalists alike. Lawson is a streaming star with tens of millions of followers whose entire catalog has been streamed over 500 million times and has become known as the artist creating “Classical music for the Spotify generation” through contemporary techniques and an emotive, arresting signature sound. He is equally at home performing his own rendition of contemporary hits such as Billie Eilish’s ‘When The Party’s Over’ (#26 in the Classical Charts), as he is performing Chopin sonatas. Chad wrote the music for the podcast ‘Lore’ and with it, toured the US for the first time. Soon after, it became a successful TV series by Amazon. His music has been used for ‘The Walking Dead’, ‘Vampire Diaries’ and ‘Viceland’, as well as numerous commercial placements including Delta Airlines and Microsoft. For the 22/23 season, Chad will be joined by acclaimed violinist Judy Kang (Lady Gaga, Ryuichi Sakamoto) and cellist Seth Parker Woods (Sting, Peter Gabriel), and will perform a program that will bridge the gap between traditional and non-traditional audiences alike. JOIN US ON SATURDAY, OCTOBER 21ST FOR A YOGA AT MANSHIP! MUSIC, YOGA, AND MEDITATION WITH CHAD LAWSON ACCOMPANYING THE CLASS AT THE PIANO.
