About This Event
Event: Yefim Bronfman Plays Schumann Venue: David Geffen Hall Yefim Bronfman performs Robert Schumann's Piano Concerto, a hallmark of Romantic music.

About Piano Concerto(concerto)
Mozart’s piano concertos chart a public career in sound, from youthful adaptations of other composers’ keyboard pieces to mature works written for him to play in Vienna during the mid-1780s. They place the soloist in dialogue with the orchestra, treating virtuosity as argument rather than display. At David Geffen Hall, the New York Philharmonic under Gustavo Dudamel features Evgeny Kissin in a Spring Gala program that also includes Shostakovich. In New York, these concertos have long served as a benchmark for how a hall balances intimacy with scale.
