Salon concert at the Piano on Park. Program to include Beethoven and Corigliano.

This fall pianist Han Chen world-premieres his latest commissioning project, “Infinite Staircase” at National Sawdust. Inspired by György Ligeti's 18 Piano Etudes, “Infinite Staircase” brings together 18 contemporary composers, hand-picked by Chen to represent a more diverse and creative future of classical music. Each composer is paired with one of the Ligeti etudes as a starting point for a new work. Chen, who has just released a new recording of the complete Ligeti Piano Etudes on Naxos, will perform all thirty-six works in one evening as a celebratory tribute to the iconic avant-garde composer’s centenary this year.
