in performance

Jamie Syer, piano

In my teaching videos, I perform the pieces I’m discussing. You can find interpretations of intermediate to advanced repertoire there.

For most of my new and archive professional recordings, both live and in studio head over to my Patreon page. Patrons receive access to a new podcast episode every two or three weeks, plus other bonus content.

On this page: a miscellany of performances, including a selection from the Long Distance Piano Duet project.

“Les larmes” (tears) and “Pâques” (Easter) from Suite No. 1 “Fantaisie-tableaux” for 2 pianos.
I’ve played this piece for many years, and never get tired of its elegance and expressiveness. Recorded live in the studio.
A whimsical duet for two keyboards, one of which is not a piano. Enjoy!
Early in the pandemic, I began recording ‘long-distance’ piano duets with some of my friends and colleagues. Here’s “En bateau” from Debussy’s Petite Suite, with Joseph Fridman, Edmonton pianist and teacher.
Bruce Vogt and I were colleagues at the University of Victoria.
We hope you enjoy this ‘long-distance’ performance of one of Schubert’s Polonaises, for piano four-hands.
Michael Manning and I were both students of Ward Davenny at the Yale School of Music a few decades ago. Here’s the Palm Court era “Waltz” from Samuel Barber’s piano duet suite Souvenirs.
