Emanuel Ax by Nigel Parry
A recital by Emanuel Ax at Carnegie Hall is always a celebrated occasion, each revealing new dimensions of “his greatness, his overwhelming authority as a musician, technician, and probing intellect” (Los Angeles Times). Hear R. Schumann’s enduringly popular Arabeske alongside its companion piece, Blumenstück. Rounding out the program are two Schubert compositions: the early A-Major Piano Sonata, whose performance by Ax has been called “exquisite” and “beautifully [and] sensitively played” by New York Arts; and the B-flat–Major Piano Sonata, which Ax performs with “a probing spirit that put[s] a spotlight on Schubert’s inventiveness” (The New York Times).
