"Reflections" with Simone Dinnerstein

Beall Concert Hall

Simone Dinnerstein is a pianist of uncommon depth, whose recordings and performances have reshaped the landscape of classical music. She first gained worldwide recognition with her 2007 recording of Bach’s Goldberg Variations, praised for its balance of precision and individuality. Since then, she has topped classical charts, premiered Philip Glass’s Piano Concerto No. 3, brought Cuba’s Havana Lyceum Orchestra to the U.S. for the first time, curated groundbreaking Bach programs, and created multimedia projects blending music and visual art. Her program mirrors the vast range of her decades-long career, blending classical and contemporary piano works.

The centerpiece of this concert is the world premiere of a newly commissioned work by composer Philip Lasser. His L’Abécédaire de Huon, Roi de Cambrai  sets a series of 13th century French poems that follow the letters of the alphabet. Continuing with works in French, the chorus will perform a piece by Haitian American composer Sydney Guillaume that set a poem by his father, Gabriel T. Guillaume: Le Dernier Voyage, a meditation on the joys and pains of life. Also on the program are Gabriel Fauré’s Cantique de Jean Racine and Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco’s Romancero Gitano, featuring poems by Federico Garcia Lorca and classical guitar.
