Jeremy Vigil, piano

Jeremy Vigil received his first video game system (a GameBoy Pocket) at the age of two, beginning a lifelong love of games of all kind… but that’s not what this bio is about. With musical tastes ranging from baroque to jazz, Jeremy is known for his versatility and adaptability in many different genres. As a pianist, organist, and occasionally percussionist, he has also worked across disciplines, performing with dancers, film, and narration, and performed extensively in large ensemble and contemporary music settings. 

An avid proponent of new music, Jeremy is always looking for opportunities to collaborate directly on new works. He has performed with organizations such as New York Composers Circle and Composers Concordance, and has worked with composers such as Sydney Hodkinson, Helmut Lachenmann, Lori Laitman, and Baljinder Sekhon for performances of their compositions.

Jeremy has spent time teaching early childhood music classes, hoping to inspire the love and aspiration of music and all that is new and exciting. During his time teaching at Bard College’s Preparatory Division, he also taught music theory, chamber music, and private lessons.

Jeremy recently taught alongside 5HE members in the Fresh Inc Festival. He was also on faculty for Si parla, si canta in Arona, Italy, where he made his operatic debut. Jeremy holds a Bachelor of Music in Piano Performance from Stetson University and a Master of Music in Piano Accompanying and Chamber Music from the Eastman School of Music, and is currently a staff pianist at Ohio University.
