Young Concert Artists: Aristo Sham, piano

• Aristo Sham, piano

Johann Sebastian Bach — Keyboard Partita No. 4 in D major, BWV 828

Heitor Villa-Lobos — A próle do bébé (Vol. 1)

"This program is an exploration and dialogue between the German foundations of our classical music genre, and New World reinventions of these forms – the dance suite, and the sonata – both cornerstones of the repertoire. We go from the ‘founding fathers’ of our music, Bach and Beethoven, to the interpretation of these traditional forms under post-colonial, multiculturalist lenses, informed with the Latin American idioms of Villa-Lobos and Piazzolla, and the post-WW2 North American voice of Barber."
