Three Pianos Playing Mozart
2026-2027Mozart in G minor: a rare color, almost an emotional signature. In his Symphony no. 25, the young Mozart bursts forth in a fiery Sturm und Drang, with dramatic intensity no one expected from a seventeen-year-old. Decades later, Symphony no. 40 returns to the same key but cloaks it in dizzying maturity: sovereign balance, inner tension, tragic purity. A lifetime separates these two works, as if Mozart were answering himself across time. Between them emerges a quintessential Mozartian fantasy: the Concerto for Three Pianos in F major—a playful trialogue full of charm, pastoral grace, and unexpected exchanges. Charles Richard-Hamelin, Meagan Milatz, and Kevin Chen cross paths, provoke, and unite in a spirit of camaraderie worthy of the composer.
A surprising and vibrant concert showcasing an unconventional program and dazzling artists.
