Performer
Sir András Schiff, Piano

A recital by pianist Sir András Schiff is always an anticipated event, with each new performance offering fresh insight and inspiration. Schiff’s well-publicized reliability for greatness—he “commands international respect as a paragon of refinement and musical integrity”—sometimes overshadows what his fans know well: that he “has an impish streak and likes to surprise” (The New York Times). His recitals at Carnegie Hall highlight both sides of this artistry, balancing encyclopedic mastery and interpretive curiosity to offer new perspective on the piano repertoire’s greatest works.
