Carnegie Hall: Alexandre Tharaud, Piano
Limited availability; please contact CarnegieCharge at (212) 247-7800
- Alexandre Tharaud, piano
Franz Schubert — Four Impromptus, D. 899
Jean-Philippe Rameau — Suite in A minor, RCT 5 (selections)
Maurice Ravel — Miroirs
Alexandre Tharaud opens this recital with his breathtaking original transcription of the Adagietto from Mahler's Fifth Symphony. His take on Schubert's Impromptus gets to "the heart of the beauties and abysses of this music" (The Guardian). Tharaud's assured interpretation of Rameau's Nouvelles suites, originally composed for the harpsichord, "makes you aware that there is as much intensity in Rameau as there is in Ravel" (Gramophone)—and it is Ravel's impressionistic and wonderfully paced Miroirs suite that rounds out Tharaud's characteristically insightful return to Zankel Hall.
