Bach — Italian Concerto, BWV 971 Shostakovich — Piano Sonata No. 2 in B Minor, Op. 61 Schumann — Symphonic Etudes, Op. 13 Inspired by the enduring genius of Johann Sebastian Bach, this program traces the luminous echoes of his ideas across three centuries of musical evolution. The journey begins with the poised, symmetrical architecture of the Italian Concerto, a Baroque work whose clarity and balance find new expression in the Romantic imagination of Robert Schumann and the modern voice of Dmitri Shostakovich. In works influenced by contrapuntal thinking and structural rigor, the program reflects Bach's lasting imprint on the piano repertoire and the ever-changing language of the instrument.
