Music & Masters: Classical-era Vienna and the Fortepiano
Enjoy an intimate evening, Music & Masters: Classical-era Vienna and the Fortepiano. Fortepianist Daniel Adam Maltz and soprano Jennifer Ellis Kampani present a rare experience of the music of Mozart, Haydn, and Beethoven, performed on the predecessor to the modern piano. This historically informed program recreates the intimate sound world of Classical-era Vienna, where music was written for smaller spaces and lighter instruments than today’s concert halls and modern pianos.
