Grammy-winning pianist Daniil Trifonov combines brilliant technique with profound sensitivity, captivating audiences around the world. In his Harris Hall recital, Trifonov presents an eclectic program: a prelude and fugue by Tchaikovsky’s friend Taneyev—the only piano work that he assigned an opus number; Prokofiev’s Visions fugitives—20 short pieces written as whimsical portraits of various friends; and Myaskovsky’s darkly powerful and technically demanding second Piano Sonata. Finally, Trifonov takes on the structural complexity and emotional intensity of Schumann’s first Piano Sonata, composed over a three-year period that included his first major depressive episode.
Immerse yourself in a compelling program performed by one of the greatest pianists of his generation!
