ChamberFest Canandaigua: Poets at the Piano

 Tonight’s program is filled with mystery, longing, and virtuosity. Bach’s Prelude and Fugue in B-flat minor opens with a tense and melancholic prelude that gives way to a masterful fugue in five voices (one of only two fugues of this character in the entire Well-Tempered Klavier). Mozart’s Fantasie, left unfinished at the time of the composer’s death, is a temperamental and moody work in seven distinct sections. From the opening notes of the immediately recognizable Ballade No. 1, one understands why Chopin called it his “dearest work.” This daring work takes the Sturm und Drang movement to epic, dreamlike heights. Gershwin’s delightful “It Ain’t Necessarily So” gives way to Schumann’s rich and colorful Piano Quartet. For more information visit www.chamberfestcanandaigua.com
