Event Description

Pianist Hélène Grimaud takes center stage in a recital that highlights her breathtaking intuition and inventiveness. The program sparkles with miniatures, including Claude Debussy’s bewitching Clair de lune, alongside the sleek minimalism of Erik Satie’s Gnossiennes, tuneful gems by contemporary Ukrainian composer Valentin Silvestrov, and spellbinding mazurakas and waltzes by piano royalty, Frédéric Chopin. The program concludes in spectacular fashion with Robert Schumann’s Kreisleriana, a kaleidoscopic spectrum of shifting moods regarded by many (including Schumann) as the composer’s finest composition.
