Kenneth Grigg, piano, performs a spectacular concert in an intimate setting. Mr. Grigg's unusual style emphasizes fluid virtuosity, beauty and variety of tone, and the aesthetic and emotional response of each listener in his audience.
Saturday, January 18, 2020, 7:45 PM: "Words and Music"Some music, like Maurice Ravel's brilliant Gaspard de la Nuit, is literally born from poetry. Some music contains epigraphs before the musical text begins. Some music seems inextricably although indirectly linked to the printed word. This recital will contain all three of these, and more.
- Ravel, Gaspard de la Nuit
- Scriabin, Sonata no. 5, Opus 53
- Michaelides, Scenes from an Enchanted Forest: Four Nocturnes for Piano
- Ellington, selected songs
- Liszt, from the Années de Pelerinage: Eglogue, Canzonetta del Salvator Rosa, Sonetto 104 del Petrarca, Au bord d'une source
- Cage, 4:33
