Reed Tetzloff performs.BEETHOVEN IN THE NEW WORLD
Beethoven did not only cast his formidable shadow over the nineteenth-century European composers who immediately followed him. His reach is universal and continues to this day. This program explores Beethoven’s influence through the works of two American composers: one from the early twentieth century, and another from the early twenty-first century. Both Jonathan Dawe’s Bagatelles for Piano and Charles Ives’ ‘Concord’ Sonata are, in various ways, homages to Beethoven.
DAWE Ten Bagatelles for Piano
BEETHOVEN Sonata no. 28 in A major, Op. 101 (20’)
Intermission
IVES Piano Sonata no. 2, ‘Concord, Mass., 1840-1860’ (43’)
American pianist Reed Tetzloff, one of the brightest stars of a new generation of musicians, enthralls audiences with his “magical tone” (The Cincinnati Enquirer) and “ebullient” virtuosity (Gramophone Magazine). He broadens his audience's horizons through performances that pair music with verbal commentary. Legendary American pianist Ursula Oppens described his interpretation Charles Ives' 'Concord' Sonata, as "one of the best I have ever heard of the piece," hailing its "utter beauty and wild intensity." A semi-finalist in the XV International Tchaikovsky Competition, his performances were widely acclaimed in the Russian media, where he was compared to Van Cliburn and dubbed “the lyric hero of the competition.”
In reviewing Tetzloff’s debut album, Sounds of Transcendence, on Romeo Records, Patrick Rucker’s Gramophone Magazine review said of his Charles Griffes' Piano Sonata, “ranking easily with the recordings of Garrick Ohlsson and Stephen Beus as the finest available.”
Tetzloff made his Lincoln Center debut with the Mannes Orchestra at Alice Tully Hall, and his New York solo recital debut at Merkin Hall.
