Johann Sebastian Bach, the monolith of Western music, is recast and given new light in piano four hand transcriptions by one of our most creative living composers, György Kurtág. On March 11, 7:30pm DUO Stephanie and Saar will celebrate the release of Bach Crossings by performing the entire CD at NYC’s (le) poisson rouge. Opening the concert are New Focus Recordings artists Daniel Lippel on guitar performing Bach transcriptions followed by Jacob Greenberg on piano performing a selection of Kurtág’s Játétok (Games).
