Special Program

Steinway Tribute Program
On April 17, 2014, I performed a recital with brief commentary in tribute to the iconic building Steinway Hall. In 2015, Steinway left the premises and relocated in the city. The former building had been home to countless recitals, including two of my own, and the rotunda where these programs usually took place was inspirational for all of us. I offered this program to acknowledge their move and in appreciation of all that Steinway means to the music world. It consisted of two Beethoven Sonatas, Opus 109 in E Major, and Opus 57 in F Minor, commonly known as the Appassionata. These opus numbers correspond to the address of the former Steinway building, 109 West 57th Street.
