The piano recital for this moment — don’t miss it.
The New York Times has called Jeremy Denk “A pianist you want to hear no matter what he performs.” On Tue, Aug 18, 7:30 PM ET, the MacArthur “Genius” Award winner performs the program the world needs right now, centered on two composers whose creativity was sparked by adversity. At the heart of the recital is Schumann’s Romantic masterwork Davidsbündlertänze, which Denk says has been a magnet for him during the pandemic. “The work is all about memory and loss — it is so emotionally rich, and my favorite piece ever.”
Denk, widely regarded for his deep musical literacy and insights, begins the recital with reflections on Schumann’s masterwork, in this must-hear concert for every piano music lover.
