Ax
WED, MAR 5 at 8 PM
Emanuel Ax, Piano
Stern Auditorium / Perelman Stage
“Mr. Ax’s shapely, tempestuous accounts were never less than spellbinding.”—New York Times
BEETHOVEN Sonata No. 2 in A Major, Op. 2, No. 2; Sonata No. 23 in F Minor, “Appassionata”
SCHUMANN Humoreske in B-flat Major, Op. 20; Papillons, Op. 2
Beethoven, from his early A-Major Sonata to the “Appassionata,” made the piano a vehicle for insatiable inquiry. Schumann, from his Papillons to his Humoresque, drew from it ever richer colors for his portraits of human life. The inimitable Ax considers both composers’ perspectives for this special recital.
