Out-of-the-box management, PR, and project planning for visionary artists and institutions
Classical Music Magazine, from the BBC, said about Mahani Teave’s debut album: “There’s genuine virtuosity, without one note of bluff, bluster or vulgarity….wide expressive range exquisitely controlled and intensely poetic…sincere, pure and magnificent artistry.”
“Tthis isn’t your ordinary “Piano Recital!!” Concertonet says, “Perhaps being raised on a remote island in the South Pacific brings with it a nuanced suavity. Mahani Teave’s style has a gauzy, breezy trim in the sails. What a splendid sendoff.”
San Francisco Classical Voice chats with Musaics of the Bay Founder and Artistic Director Audrey Vardanega about how she got started her, her unusual career path, and what inspired her to start Musaics of the Bay.
“In the end, every career is a moonshot,” said Matthew Gurewitsch in Graydon Carter’s Air Mail, where he chats with the pianist on the heels of the release of her debut disc. They talk about how while she was still in her 20s, she had begun to make her mark in competitions and the concert circuit….yet Rapa Nui was calling her back. “There was this umbilical cord connecting me to the island,” Teave recalls. “‘Honey,’ it was saying, ‘you’ve had all these opportunities. There are lots of other children back home waiting to have them, too. Only you can do this.”
Pianist and humanitarian Mahani Teave chatted with Gramophone magazine about her newly released debut recording. “With its heart-warming narrative and underlying message of hope, resilience and empathy, the story of how pianist Mahani Teave came to make her debut recording reads like a fairy tale. (Little wonder that an Emmy Award-winning producer has been inspired to
make a film about it.) But behind most fairy tales are some familiar ingredients: determination, self-belief, a desire to make the world a better place – and a little bit of luck. And Mahani Teave is no exception.”
