- Isata Kanneh-Mason, piano

Robert Schumann — Kinderszenen ("Scenes From Childhood"), Op. 15
Frédéric Chopin — Piano Sonata No. 3 in B minor, Op. 58
Isata Kanneh-Mason makes her solo recital debut at Carnegie Hall following recent sold-out performances with her brother Sheku Kanneh-Mason. An ambitious program opens with Haydn's Piano Sonata in C major, Hob. XVI: 50, a piece replete with timeless character and Haydnesque quirks. Fanny Mendelssohn's masterful Easter Sonata was a long-lost work that, once found, was wrongly credited to Felix Mendelssohn until shockingly recently. The second half of the recital comprises Robert Schumann's Kinderszenen, a popular suite of 13 brief reminiscences on childhood, and Chopin's brilliant and exceptionally difficult final piano sonata.
