A superb pianist with “impeccable taste and a formidable technique” (The New Yorker), Jonathan Biss channels his deep musical curiosity to connect the pillars of the repertoire with new compositions. He returns to Meany with Schubert’s last major composition for piano — addressing the mysteries of life and death with directness and astonishing beauty — and a new work by Tyshawn Sorey, “a composer of radical and seemingly boundless ideas” (Wall Street Journal) who often melds composition and improvisation.
“One can immerse oneself in the greatest music of the past and work to ensure that the present and future are more just, and so much richer for it.” — Jonathan Biss
