The Piatigorsky Foundation shares live classical music with communities throughout the United States. Gregor Piatigorsky, the renowned cellist, believed that music is not a luxury for an elite few, but a necessity of life for all. PF Classical Community Concerts bring together world-class musicians and eager audiences to celebrate the joy of music. During our concert season Piatigorsky Artists visit over 20 states, perform more than 200 concerts, and reach over 18,000 individuals throughout the country. We began in 1991 and look forward to continuing our nonprofit mission of providing classical music for everyone. The Piatigorsky Foundation is a qualified 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization.
