Groupmuse: Friday piano nights
$5 to reserve, $30+ at event
- Luba Poliak, piano
- Victoria Schwartzman, piano
Maurice Ravel — Ma Mere L'Oye ("Mother Goose") for Piano Four Hands
Samuel Barber — Souvenirs for Piano Four Hands, Op. 28
Piano has always been an "orchestral" instrument and each of these composers on the program wrote extensively for orchestras. Piano duet might be the closest piano can get to that rich and grand sonority of an orchestra. Ravel and Barber collections of dances are often performed by orchestras, after composers orchestrated them. Both of these collections were also choreographed.
Note from the host: "Every 2 weeks Friday at 8 pm we'll host piano concerts, including duets and soloists, on the parlor floor of our Brooklyn home, allowing for time to mingle and to get to know the musician after the performance."
Ages 21+ only. Not handicap accessible. Alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks provided. Cats live at this residence.
Exact address sent to approved attendees via email.
