Prepare for a piano recital that pushes the instrument to its absolute limits. Marc-André Hamelin, celebrated around the world for his astonishing virtuosity, intellectual curiosity, and adventurous programming, comes to Merkin Hall for an evening that moves from the poetic to the dazzling. Hailed by The New York Times for his “near-superhuman technical prowess,” Hamelin is a pianist who pairs breathtaking technique with extraordinary musical insight.
The program spans a fascinating range of musical worlds: the atmospheric Carillon Nocturne by George Enescu, the dramatic Piano Sonata No. 5 by Mieczysław Weinberg, Chopin’s intensely expressive Piano Sonata No. 2 *(including its iconic Funeral March), and *Debussy’s shimmering Images, Book 2. The evening concludes with **Earl Wild’s spectacular Seven Virtuoso Études on Gershwin Songs, a thrilling fusion of classical pianism and jazz-inspired flair. It's an opportunity to hear one of today's great piano virtuosos take on a program full of color, contrast, and technical fireworks. Join us at Kaufman Music Center on Tuesday, December 15 at 7:30 p.m. Through Groupmuse Nights Out, tickets are just $20 instead of $30. 🎹
