FEATURING
Peter Serkin, piano
“Serkin is a great pianist because he is an original musical thinker…Serkin consistently provided an amazing and illuminating amount of subtle detail; every chord was fascinatingly voiced, every phrase tenderly sculpted, the counterpoint limned a way a great Bach player does.” — The Boston Globe
“Mr. Serkin played as if channeling the music from another realm.” — The New York Times
