Adaptive Concert: Charlotte Tang, fortepiano
Advertisement
A saugaLIVE Presents Event in collaboration with Xenia Concerts
Hear the piano as it once was—intimate, expressive, and alive.
How did music sound 200 years ago? Step into a 19th-century drawing room and experience the piano as audiences once did—rich with imagination, nuance, and human connection. Performed on a historical fortepiano, this immersive concert brings to life beloved works by Chopin, Schubert, Liszt, Beethoven, Clara Schumann, and more.
Audience members are invited to draw and respond creatively throughout the performance, making each concert a shared artistic experience.
The evening is led by award-winning fortepianist Charlotte Tang, whose performances are shaped by deep research into the expressive possibilities of early pianos. A laureate of the 2024 Musica Antiqua Competition in Bruges and recipient of the 2025 Early Music America Emerging Artist Award, Tang reveals colours, textures, and emotional nuance rarely heard on modern instruments.
Praised as an “expressive, fine chamber musician,” she brings both scholarly insight and artistic sensitivity to the stage—offering a vivid, intimate encounter with music history.
This is more than a concert—it’s a journey into the sound world of the past.
This adaptive music performance is being presented in a family-friendly, inclusive environment that embraces neurodiversity and disability.
The performance will run up to 60 minutes and includes a Q&A session with the artists.
Complimentary tickets for infants (aged 0-12 months) and support persons - please contact the Ticket Office for more information.
All sales final.
