Venues
The Portland Piano International Classic Series for the 2011-2012 season will take place on Sundays in the Newmark Theatre, 1111 SW Broadway (at Main) in the Portland Center for Performing Arts. This refined and elegant theater was designed to emulate the Edwardian-style theaters of Europe. With a capacity of just 880, no seat is further than 65 feet from the stage. The theater is equipped with an infrared listening system and is fully ADA compliant.
The Portland Piano International Up Close Series for the 2011-2012 season will take place in the newly renovated downstairs Room 75 in Lincoln Hall on the Portland State University Campus. This intimate venue, with fewer than 225 seats, is a wonderful opportunity to experience three extraordinary pianists "up close and personal."
The Portland Piano International PDX Piano Series for the 2011-2012 season will find expression at the Doug Fir Lounge, 830 E Burnside St. An alternative venue for Portland Piano, the Doug Fir provides a new space to experience fresh and adventurous piano sounds from world-class pianists, again on our beautiful Hamburg Steinway "D."
