This program invites listeners to explore a rich tapestry of twentieth-century piano music, in which currents of the Baroque tradition inspire innovative voices. It opens with the shimmering, impressionistic landscapes of Debussy, pauses to celebrate Busoni's immortal piano transcription of Bach's violin masterpiece, moves through Gubaidulina's passionate interpretation of the Chaconne form, and culminates in the fiercely individual voice of Ralf Gawlick, a composer who reshapes the Western musical tradition with daring creativity and an uncompromising vision.
