[BROADCAST] Great Performers in Recital at Tanglewood: Daniil Trifonov performs Bach
$12 / $100
Daniil Trifonov, piano
Johann Sebastian Bach – The Art of Fugue, BWV 1080
The Russian pianist Daniil Trifonov is as well-known for his searching, thoughtful programs as he is for his remarkable virtuosity and sensitivity as a performer.
Bach’s The Art of Fugue demands all of a performer’s resources. Written and compiled near the end of the composer’s life, The Art of Fugue is a collection of diverse pieces based on a single D minor theme. That theme is reversed, inverted, and otherwise reworked to create a brilliant kaleidoscope of contrapuntal mastery. Like the Goldberg Variations, The Art of Fugue also embraces a wide range of musical moods and styles.
Available August 8, 2020 at 8pm Eastern / 5pm Pacific, through August 15.
