Benedict Music Tent, 960 N 3rd St, Aspen, CO 81611

Event Description

"British pianist Paul Lewis will be showcased in Beethoven’s Fourth Piano Concerto, a piece that was ahead of its time in depth, lyricism, and intimacy. Also on the program, hear the rarely performed Second Symphony by Kurt Weill whose musical mood runs the gamut from irony to jubilation, culminating in a frantic dance which in the words of one critic, 'whirls toward triumph or disaster, all the more terrifying because we cannot decide which it will be."
