Richard Goode, piano, plays Schubert, Schumann, and more

The 92nd Street Y, one of New York’s leading cultural venues, presents Richard Goode, piano, playing Schubert, Schmann, and more on Wednesday, November 10, 2021 at 7:30pm ET as part of its fall classical music season, its first fully in-person season since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. The concert will also be available via livestream and available for 72 hours from time of broadcast. Tickets for both the in-person and livestream options are $20-$45 and are available at 92y.org/event/richard-goode.

Few musicians perform in such pure service of the composer as award-winning pianist Richard Goode. Arguably the greatest American pianist today in the core piano repertoire, Goode returns for a second appearance this season with a program of music at the heart of his artistry. Hear him as he brings emotional depth and his signature elegance to Schumann’s sparkling, irresistible Papillons and a pair of early Schubert works, before journeying into Bartok’s rich and deeply melodic folk-based transcriptions.

The program includes:

Schubert, Six Moments Musicaux, D. 780
Schubert, Sonata in A Minor, D. 845
Schumann, Papillons, Op. 2
Bartok, 15 Hungarian Peasant Songs, Sz. 71

Comprising 14 concerts performed in 92Y’s historic Kaufmann Concert Hall, the fall season includes two appearances by world-renowned pianist Richard Goode; an all-Rossini program from tenors Lawrence Brownlee and Michael Spyres; the first performance by The Knights as 92Y’s inaugural Ensemble in Residence; the 92Y debuts of rising star violinist Randall Goosby, intrepid cellist Seth Parker Woods, and the Grammy Award-nominated Aizuri Quartet; guitarist Ana Vidovic; MacArthur “Genius” Award winner and pianist Jeremy Denk, and others, performing a diverse group of repertoire which includes works of Eleanor Alberga, Johann Sebastian Bach, Joseph Boulogne, Coleridge-Taylor Perkinson, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Jessie Montgomery, César Franck, Florence Price, Louis Moreau Gottschalk, and more.

A full list of performances and dates are listed below. Concerts are for fully vaccinated audiences. For more information, including purchasing tickets and COVID-19 protocols for in-person performances, please visit 92Y.org/Concerts.
