Event Description
Canadian pianist Sarah Hagen is known for transforming the classical concert experience with her deeply expressive playing and playful stage presence. Described as “outstandingly inventive” and “flawlessly played,” Sarah brings a refreshing energy to the piano, whether she’s performing Bach or exploring forgotten gems by 18th-century women composers. Her performances go beyond the traditional recital, often weaving in elements of storytelling, theatre, and even stand-up comedy.Sarah has toured extensively across Canada and Europe, and has twice performed at New York City’s Carnegie Hall. She’s earned accolades including Artist of the Year from both Ontario Contact and the BC Touring Council, and her recordings have garnered ECMA and Music PEI awards. A natural collaborator, she’s shared the stage with some of North America’s finest classical musicians and performed with symphonies from BC to PEI.
Equally comfortable in concert halls and intimate venues, Sarah invites audiences of all kinds to experience classical music in unexpected ways. Whether she’s interpreting the timeless works of Schumann or performing her hit one-woman show Perk up, pianist!, Sarah’s charm, wit, and musicianship always strike a chord. Her performances promise not only world-class piano, but a truly memorable experience.
