About Kyle

Concert Pianist. Educator. Cultural Curator.

Kyle P. Walker is a concert pianist and artist faculty member in Piano Studies at New York University's Steinhardt School, where he teaches graduate students and performs across the United States and internationally. He is also a faculty member at Kaufman Music Center's Lucy Moses School in New York City.

His work as a performer and curator centers on programs that bring underrepresented voices to the concert stage, including composers whose music has been sidelined by historical circumstances. He performs regularly with the Harlem Chamber Players and has been featured in the documentary Orchestrated.

His skills are obvious, and Kyle's performance showcased his love of music.
