The sound of today’s best pianos—like the Hamburg Steinway concert grands you hear at CMS—is a truly awesome sonority. A great piano can do anything, from roaring like a lion to singing like a soprano. But composers as far back as Mozart realized a pianist could do even more with a partner, and we now enjoy a stunning array of repertoire for pianos side by side. No piano aficionado should miss this concert filled with the camaraderie of five pianists - including Evren Ozel, Jean-Efflam Bavouzet, Alessio Bax, Anne-Marie McDermott, and Wu Han.
