Carte Blanche Concert II: Arnaldo Cohen, piano
SEE EVENT DETAILS
at Stent Family Hall, Menlo School
(see times)
Celebrated pianist Arnaldo Cohen makes his Music@Menlo debut with a tour de force of impassioned Romantic expression. The first half of the program is given over to the music of two Baroque masters, reimagined by their nineteenth-century heirs: Bach’s spellbinding d minor Chaconne transcribed by Italian composer and piano virtuoso Ferruccio Busoni and Brahms’s majestic Variations and Fugue on a Theme by Handel. Four scherzi by Fryderyk Chopin conclude the program. A far cry from the short, spirited bagatelles typically classified as scherzi, they are as devilish for the fingers as they are riveting to the ear.
