Pianist Sergei Novikov will perform two concerts on Friday, May 27 at 3 pm and 7 pm at the Cotuit Center for the Arts at 4404 Falmouth Rd.

From Tchaikovsky to Phantom and from Ellington to Joel, the performance will delight the audience, all with a good sense of humor. Part of the profits from concerts will be donated to the International Rescue Committee (IRC) to help assist Ukraine.

Sergei has performed for such luminaries as President George H.W. Bush, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, President Joe Biden as well as Billy Joel, Reba McEntire and Paul Newman. He opened a program for first lady Barbara Bush. Sergei received official recognition from the Queen Mother of England for his music. He performed a solo concert in the same WCRB Classical Concert series as the conductor of Boston Pops, Keith Lockhart, at Copley Square in the heart of Boston.
