Frédéric Chopin and Sergei Rachmaninoff stand among the greatest poet-composers of the piano, each creating music of profound depth, beauty, and emotional power that continues to captivate audiences worldwide. In this program, pianist Michelle Yelin Nam brings these two towering figures into dialogue, interweaving their works to illuminate the striking affinities between them across time and culture.
From the intimate charm of Chopin’s Mazurkas and the lyrical intensity of Rachmaninoff’s Preludes to the tender nostalgia of Liebesleid, the elegance of the Waltz, the dramatic contrast of two Chopin Scherzos, and the grandeur of Rachmaninoff’s Variations on a Theme of Corelli, this program presents Romantic piano music at its most compelling.
