The Music of Rachmaninoff and Shostakovich
Mineral Area Council on the Arts event co-sponsored by City of Farmington and Marler Music Center present the music of Dr. Robert Marler and Dr. Carmine Miranda.
Dr. Marler, known to the hometown folks as “Bob”, grew up in the Marler Music store in Flat River where he began teaching piano lessons at the age of thirteen. Another of his duties was to demonstrate not only the piano and his high school instrument, the trombone, but other instruments for sale. He
began his collegiate studies at Mineral Area College under the tutelage of Robert Vandall, who later became one of the most important composers of piano pedagogy pieces in the country. While in college at University of Missouri, he gradually focused entirely on his principle instrument, the piano.
Dr. Marler will be performing a favorite piece in the Romantic Era style by Russian composer, Sergei Rachmaninoff (1873 – 1943), Sonata for Cello and Piano, with colleague Dr. Carmine Miranda. Dr. Miranda is a Belmont Fellow in the School of Music where he teaches cello.
