Juho Pohjonen Recital

Santa Fe Chamber Music Festival

Join us for an unforgettable evening of chamber music at the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, featuring the acclaimed pianist Juho Pohjonen. This special event, part of the Art of the Recital series, will take place on Thursday, February 20, 2025, at 7:30 pm in the intimate setting of the Daniel and Joanna S. Rose Studio at CMS.

The program promises a journey through the evolution of piano music, starting with the world premiere of Jyrki Linjama's "Prélude oublié for Piano" (2024), followed by masterpieces from Alexander Scriabin, Franz Liszt, Ludwig van Beethoven, and Olivier Messiaen. Highlights include Scriabin's "Sonata No. 6 for Piano, Op. 62" and "Sonata No. 7 for Piano, Op. 64, White Mass," Liszt's "Après une Lecture du Dante: Fantasia quasi Sonata for Piano," Beethoven's "Sonata for Piano, Op. 27, No. 1, Quasi una fantasia," and Messiaen's "Le baiser de l’Enfant-Jésus from Vingt regards sur l’Enfant-Jésus for Piano."

Juho Pohjonen, celebrated for his "impeccable technique" (Washington Post) and "elegant musicianship" (New York Times), brings his expertise and passion for Scandinavian music to the forefront, offering a showcase of works by Finnish composers alongside the classics. An alum of CMS’s Bowers Program, Pohjonen enjoys an ongoing association with the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, making this performance a homecoming of sorts.

The event will last approximately 2 hours, including an intermission, allowing audiences to fully immerse themselves in the beauty and complexity of the music. The Daniel and Joanna S. Rose Studio at CMS, located in the Rose Building at 165 West 65th Street, New York, NY 10023, provides the perfect acoustics and ambiance for this musical exploration.

Tickets are not yet on sale but be sure to mark your calendars and stay tuned for the opportunity to secure your seats for this must-attend event. Whether you're a long-time classical music enthusiast or new to the chamber music scene, this recital promises to be a memorable part of the 2025 season at the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center.
