Weill Recital Hall
Jenny Chen presents virtuosic compositions from the Romantic, Impressionistic and Modern musical eras. Chopin’s 24 Preludes, each expressing a unique emotion, are followed by Rachmaninoff’s radiant and sunny Lilacs. The cultures of Spain, France, and Russia are embraced with Liszt’s Feux follets and Rhapsodie espagnole (inspired by Liszt’s 1845 tour of Spain), Debussy’s impressionistic prelude Feux d’artifice, and the early modernism of Stravinsky’s masterpiece Pétrouchka.
