Two of today’s brightest stars join forces for an all-Rachmaninoff program that highlights their infinitely graceful approach to even the most demanding repertoire. The first half of the concert is a solo performance by pianist Evgeny Kissin, comprising Rachmaninoff’s Second Piano Sonata and Morceaux de fantaisie. The second half welcomes “America’s soprano of choice” (The New York Times), Renée Fleming, whose treatment of Rachmaninoff’s work has been praised for its elusive “combination of abandon and delicate poise” (The Guardian).
