Judith Gordon

Judith Gordon (born 1963, Baltimore, Maryland) is a concert pianist and educator.

Gordon studied at Oberlin Conservatory and at New England Conservatory where she studied with Patricia Zander.

Gordon gave her New York recital debut on May 27, 1990 at the Metropolitan Museum of Art as part of the museum’s Introductions series. Bernard Holland, reviewing for The New York Times, wrote, "… Ms. Gordon does not have the dominating technique associated with major virtuosos, but she has character and she thinks."

In 1996, Gordon was named the Boston Globe Musician of the Year.

The Celebrity Series of Boston has presented Gordon frequently and she has performed regularly with Emmanuel Music. With Rob Kapilow she explored music of Beethoven and Debussy in his What Makes It Great? programs in Boston, Los Angeles, and New York. Gordon has performed as a soloist with the Boston Pops, the Boston Modern Orchestra Project, the Pro Arte Chamber Orchestra, and the MIT Symphony.

Gordon has performed with a variety of musicians, including soprano Lisa Saffer, mezzo-soprano Janice Felty, mezzo-soprano Lorraine Hunt Lieberson, tenor William Hite, and baritone James Maddalena; cellists Andres Diaz, Rhonda Rider, and Yo-Yo Ma; violists James Dunham, Cynthia Phelps, Marcus Thompson, and Roger Tapping; violinists Rose Mary Harbison and Andrew Kohji Taylor; and oboist Douglas Boyd. She has also performed with the following ensembles: Imani Winds; the Jacques Thibaud String Trio; the Arianna String Quartet, Borromeo String Quartet, Lydian String Quartet, and St. Lawrence String Quartet; the Boston Chamber Music Society, Collage New Music, and Santa Fe New Music.
