He received his formal training through scholarships at the New England Conservatory and Oberlin Conservatory. \nCooper performs on a “Januarius Gaglianus 1751” on generous loan from a private collection. \n“He painted his lines with bold colors; his tone tastefully wavered between silvery delicacy and dark\, grainy power.” \n– The Arts Fuse \nRussian-born pianist Dina Vainshtein has degrees from the Gnesins Institute of Music in Moscow\, the Cleveland Institute of Music and the New England Conservatory of Music. Ms. Vainshtein received a Special Prize for Best Collaboration at the International Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow. \nMs. Vainshtein has performed at Alice Tully Hall and Weill Recital Hall in New York City\, Jordan Hall in Boston and the Great Hall of the Moscow Conservatory.
