Award-winning pianist Andrei Baumann makes his triumphant return to the Crocker to perform two beloved works of 19th-century European classical music: Beethoven’s Piano Sonata No. 28 in A major, Op. 101; and Chopin’s Piano Sonata No. 3. Works of enormous technical challenge and emotive beauty, both offer a stunning musical counterpart to the Crocker’s collection of 19th-century European painting. Before the performance enjoy an in-depth, docent-led tour of select works from the Crocker’s permanent collection of 19th-century European painting, to help put the music in context with the art.
