Friends of Good Music Presents Jennifer Hayghe

Pianist Jennifer Hayghe has been sought after as a soloist, chamber musician and teacher throughout the United States and in Central America, Europe and Asia.

She received her bachelor's, master's and doctorate degrees from The Juilliard School, where she was the last student of the legendary artist-teacher Adele Marcus. During her studies, Hayghe won every award possible for a Juilliard pianist to receive, including the William Petschek Debut Award, resulting in her New York City recital debut at Alice Tully Hall.

Hayghe has performed and taught at universities and colleges throughout the country. She has also appeared as a concerto soloist with orchestras throughout the United States, including the National Symphony Orchestra, the Syracuse Symphony Orchestra, the Virginia Symphony Orchestra and the Pensacola Symphony Orchestra. Hayghe has performed in multiple major chamber music series, including Bargemusic in New York and the Garth Newel Center for Music series in Virginia, and has most recently been a Festival Artist for Colorado MahlerFest for the past six years. She has taught chamber music throughout the United States and in Central America, and since 2018 has taught and performed as a soloist and chamber musician at the Brancaleoni International Music Festival in Piobbico, Italy. 

"I have heard very few piano recitals — including those by internationally famous performers — that were as thoughtfully chosen or played with a more assured technical control or a finer sense of the varied styles of the chosen composers. (Hayghe) knows how to create and sustain an atmosphere through subtle variations of tone and phrasing." - The Washington Post
