Daniil Trifonov performs a thoughtfully curated recital of Tchaikovsky, Chopin, and Barber. Though posthumously published as Op. 80, Tchaikovsky’s Piano Sonata in C-sharp Minor is a youthful work that predates all of his published music, and it includes material later found in his First Symphony. Among the recital’s generous array of Chopin waltzes are works that the composer distributed as private gifts, requesting that they be burnt upon his death. Published posthumously, they remain extremely popular today. Barber’s Piano Sonata is a stylistically diverse work rife with interpretive possibility. Originally commissioned by Irving Berlin and Richard Rodgers, and premiered by Vladimir Horowitz in 1949, it has been held in the highest regard by leading musicians since its inception. The concert concludes with a solo-piano arrangement of Tchaikovsky’s emotionally stirring The Sleeping Beauty ballet.
