Any recital by Stephen Hough is a must-see event, and an opportunity to experience yet another side to Hough’s wizardry.
Lushly serene, this meditative program features some of the absolute masterworks of Romantic and Impressionist writing, from Chopin to Liszt and Debussy, and also a work by Hough himself.
Named by The Economist as one of “Twenty Living Polymaths” and the first classical performer to be awarded a MacArthur Fellowship (the unofficial “Genius Grant”), Stephen Hough is a modern-day Renaissance man. In this recital, his dazzling talent is on full, breathtaking display.
