Dmitry Yudin: Granados' Goyescas & American Piano Rags — Piano Recital in Aventura

“Dmitry Yudin's debut surpassed all expectations. He tackled a terrifyingly virtuosic program with authority and musicality… creating one of the most memorable debuts in the festival's history.”

Now he returns to Aventura with a program that travels from Goya's Madrid to the Americas: Granados' complete Goyescas, followed by music from Mexico and the United States.

Second part: Manuel M. Ponce, Balada Mexicana · Charles Tomlinson Griffes, Roman Sketches, Op. 7 · William Bolcom, Nine Bagatelles (1996) · William Albright, The Nightmare Fantasy Rag (1970).
