General Info
Tanya Végváry Plescia began studying piano at the age of four under the tutelage of her father. She started formal lessons at age six. As a young pianist, while studying with Tom Hulse, Tanya won several awards and honors including the Festival of New American Music honor, Grayce Kent Clark Scholarship award, Music Teachers Association of California Scholarship award, and the Edna S. Sibole Scholarship award. Tanya continued her studies at the California State University of Sacramento where she studied with Frank Wasko and Richard Cionco. While at the University she received a talent based scholarship each continuing semester, was the winner of the Senior Achievement Award and the winner of the annual Concerto Competition. She performed Prokofiev’s First Piano Concerto with the Sacramento State Orchestra, Leo Eylar conducting. Ms. Plescia also received the Pi Kappa Lambda national honor. She graduated Summa cum Laude with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Humanities with an emphasis on religious studies, and a second Bachelors of Music degree in Piano Performance.Reviews of Ms. Plescia’s performances and compositions have been fabulous. “…Plescia’s original compositions show a wide range of influences and a taste for pushing musical boundaries. Her set of variations (Theme and Variations for Violin and Piano) are everywhere full of color, and she’s not shy about taking risks and being provocative. It came across as music that makes you think and feel, and if that isn’t the point of original music, I don’t know what is.” (Edward Ortiz, Sacramento Bee) Plescia’s original piece titled “Geary Street” was described as “a musical trip through rush hour traffic, but punctuated by moments of clarity and serenity.” Ms. Plescia brings a passion and fire to the piano literature that would thrill Beethoven. She takes those little notes on the page and breathes life into them, literally teasing out the flesh and blood that has gone into each composition, peeling back the layers of heart and emotion in each work until it is revealed stark and luminescent. She is fearless and devoted to the work, whether it is her own brilliant composition (I heard three at her concert), or works of previous masters.” (Jim Caroompas, Martinez News Gazette)Tanya Plescia has taught piano for many years in Sacramento. Her studio has openings by audition.
