Baroque Masterpieces from Epic Films: pianist Polina Osetinskaya at 92Y

Pianist Polina Osetinskaya, a former wunderkind whose performance career began at age 6, returns to the United States for a thoughtful and engaging solo program of some of the most enduring musical masterpieces in history. With her remarkable virtuosity, Osetinskaya brings to life seminal works by Bach, Handel and Rameau, from epic films by Coppola, Kubrick, Tarkovsky and other luminary directors. The dramatic qualities of the music, which had once enhanced the pivotal moments in these great films, are now distilled by Osetinskaya into a live program that’s already being lauded as one of this summer’s can’t-miss performances.
