The Marianne Tobias Music Program at Eskenazi Health is excited to partner with the American Piano Awards for their 2026-2027 competition season.
The American Piano Awards nurtures the artistic growth of America's top young pianists by focusing on creative expression and career development. This year’s jazz piano competition will feature five finalists who will give solo performances at Eskenazi Health throughout the 2026-2027 competition cycle.
The second finalist performance will feature Connor Rohrer on Wednesday, November 11, at 12 p.m. in the Eli Lilly and Company Foundation Concourse.
Pianist, arranger, and composer Connor Rohrer, based in New York City, has performed at major international festivals including the Newport Jazz Festival, the Montreux Jazz Festival, and the BBC Proms, and at venues such as Carnegie Hall and the Royal Albert Hall. He has recorded with artists including Ron Carter and Dayna Stephens and was a second-place finalist in the 2023 Herbie Hancock Institute of Jazz International Piano Competition, as well as a recipient of DownBeat Student Composition Awards. He tours with vocalist Samara Joy.
