Nicholas Reveles
Of course, there are a lot of distinguished musicians and scholars who give talks about music for various organizations around town, not to speak of the university music departments. But Nicholas Reveles has the advantages of being a superb pianist, having taught with distinction at USD, knowing the musical literature inside and out, and possessing a friendly and charming style of discourse that makes his insights easier to appreciate. His ability to illustrate his talks at the piano helps. He's a lover of Beethoven, a lover of opera (with two decades of lecturing about the operas of the San Diego Opera season), an expert on music for the dance (accompanying Baryshnikov's dance ensemble), an all-round musician, a lucid and literate speaker, and a stimulating conversationalist.
