Whether performing great works of the past or illuminating today’s masterpieces, Denk is the ideal interpreter for music that defies classification. He has performed as a soloist to critical acclaim with major orchestras across the globe, and his notable collaborations with artists such as Joshua Bell and many of the world’s finest string quartets have been praised as “flawless.”This performance marks the concert debut of The Cornelia, TPA’s new Steinway concert grand, a gift from the Mary Potishman Lard Trust and the Friedman children in honor of their mother Cornelia C. Friedman.“Hearing Mr. Denk’s bracing, effortlessly virtuosic and utterly joyous performance, one would never guess how phenomenally difficult the piano part is.” THE NEW YORK TIMESMUSICAL PROGRAMSonata, Sz. 80 Allegro moderato Sostenuto e pesante Allegro molto BARTÓK (1881 – 1945) Prelude on “Weinen, Klagen, Sorgen, Zagen”, S. 179 LISZT (1811 – 1886) I vidi in terra angelici costumi (No. 123) from Sonetti del Petrarca, S. 161 (Années de pèlerinage, Deuxième Année: Italie) LISZT Après une lecture du Dante, fantasia quasi sonatafrom Années de pèlerinage, Deuxième Année: Italie, S. 161LISZT Isolden’s Liebestod, S. 447 after WagnerLISZTINTERMISSION Prelude and Fugue in B minor, BWV. 869 J.S.
