Kirill Gerstein, Piano — live event
In Robert Schumann’s energetic Carnaval miniatures, Russian American pianist Kirill Gerstein “gets down deep,” highlighting something darker looming in the apparent revelry with “characteristic subtlety” (The New York Times). Such a searching approach to even tried-and-true showpieces makes Gerstein one of today’s most compelling recitalists. At the core of the program are a tour-de-force of concert staples, including Ravel’s dazzling solo-piano arrangement of La valse and Liszt’s Romantic masterpiece, the Piano Sonata in B Minor. Completing the program are Liszt’s mystically beautiful “Bénédiction de Dieu dans la solitude” and the New York premiere of Francisco Coll’s Waltzes Toward Civilization, inspired by Federico García Lorca’s seminal book of poetry, Poet in New York.
