American piano virtuoso Jeremy Denk doesn’t need an elaborate introduction as his lyrical and exacting style and an exquisite taste in program selection earned him high accolades from the critics and a faithful following by the fans. His genuine performing style calls for an equally well-attuned play by his partners on stage. So it is not surprising that for this Carnegie Hall appearance Denk invited his friends the violinists who can match in virtuosity when playing “mature” Mozart sonatas for piano and violin together with the music by Handel, Ravel, Stravinsky, Adams and others.
Mozart, who was known for his brilliant command of the piano and the violin, had written the sonatas included in this program when he was still employed in Salzburg. While the sonatas from his early period have the violin in the lead, the more mature pieces call for an even-handed treatment of the instruments. The intertwined parts of the scores don’t delineate for a solo and an accompaniment role but create a wholesome arrangement. That is the main idea behind this carefully curated musical holiday present to every music lover.
