The International Center for Music at Park University alumnus Michael Davidman is featured in NUVO for this recent performance at the Indiana History Center on December 8th where he was returning "for another shot at the top APA classical prize" and was showcasing "his growth as a performer."

Since his appearance in the American Piano Awards in 2021, Michael studied with Stanislav Ioudenitch at the International Center for Music at Park University where he earned his Artist Diploma.

Excellent read which takes you into the head of Michael as he strives to achieve the composer's intent. Good luck with the APA, Michael! We're cheering for you!

2021 American Piano Awards laureate Michael Davidman was at the Indiana History Center on December 8, showcasing his growth as a performer.

This was their 22nd year of performing together.
