A bright new star in the musical firmament, pianist Paul Lewis appears regularly at the world's major music venues and festivals. His highly acclaimed Schubert piano sonata series, presented throughout the United Kingdom, won him wide acclaim and his thrilling Harmonia Mundi recordings of this repertoire went on to score two prestigious Edison awards in Holland. A consummate artist, his formidable musical intelligence and audaciously fresh approach to music-making lend his readings particular strength. "What Lewis does better than practically any other pianist of his generation is to caress chords with such tender care that they seem to unlock worlds of profound emotion" (The Times, London).
This performance is made possible, in part, through the generosity of Lynn and Donald A. Glaser.
Program: Mozart/Fantasia in C Minor, K. 475; Ligeti/Musica Ricercata—11 Pieces for Piano; Mozart/Rondo in A Minor, K. 511; Schubert/Sonata No.18 in G Major, D. 894
