</html><description>Eric Charnofsky is like a musician from an earlier era--one who is equal parts performer and composer. An active pianist of formidable skills--you might have heard him perform with the LA Phil during its 2000-01 season, when he was a finalist for the orchestra's keyboard position--he is also a prolific composer. Add to that his life teaching full-time, at Case Western Reserve University where he teaches 20th century music history and keyboard ensemble courses, and at the Cleveland Institute of Music, where he teaches symphonic literature, and you have an extremely active musical life.</description></oembed>
