Wortham Center Presents
Ryan & Ryan
February 14, 2022 at 7 p.m.
Valentine’s Day
From Rachmaninoff to Gershwin to Billy Joel, dynamic father-son piano duo Donald and Barron Ryan combine their talents to create a dazzling blend of old and new. Their expertise in classical, jazz, ragtime and funk allows these musicians to create exciting new music while giving fresh interpretations of old — all in one special Valentine’s Day performance. A native of Trinidad and Tobago, Donald came to the United States to study music, eventually becoming one of the most accomplished pianists in the world as a Steinway Artist. Following in his father’s footsteps, Barron began playing piano at age 4 and is an award-winning soloist in his own right. Together, they pair a charming father-son rapport with unstoppable musical energy to create an enthralling concert experience that mixes classical with contemporary.
