Renowned pianist to perform benefit for scholarships
Jose Sequeira Costa, Cordelia B. Murphy distinguished professor of piano, already has played in most of the great music centers in the world.
By Mariana Paiva Kansan staff writer
Costa has been a member of the KU music department since 1976. He has performed in New York, Paris, Washington, Moscow, London and several other international venues.
The cost is $5 for students and senior citizens and $10 for the public. The money collected will go to the University of Kansas' piano scholarship fund.
Costa will perform a benefit piano recital at 7:30 tonight in the Lied Center.
As a KU faculty member, Costa wants to help piano students achieve their own success.

Tonight, Costa will play Chopin's "Ballade in F minor, op. 52." Debussy's "Suite Bergamasque," Liszt's "Reminiscences of Norma by Bellini," and Beethoven's "Sonata in F minor, op. 57." Passionate!
Costa has judged the Tchaikovsky International Music Competitions in Moscow six times.
In 1999, Costa will perform in London for the celebration of the 150th anniversary of Chopin's birth. He was one of six pianists invited to perform.

"I learned a lot playing with him," said Ben Sayevich, assistant professor of violin, who has played with Costa for eight years. "It is a challenge to play with him because you know you are playing with a person who has lived a long life dedicated to music."
