The brand new series Pianoply is dedicated to showcasing innovation in keyboard writing and performance, as well as Merkin Concert Hall's two beloved Steinway pianos. It will attempt to delve into the many possibilities of the instrument, which have made it one of the most popular in the history of music. The coupling of “hands-in” piano luminaries Margaret Leng Tan & Sylvie Courvoisier starts out the season followed by the young British harpsichord virtuoso Jane Chapman, who will explore the instrument’s evolution. Stephen Gosling & Anthony Coleman perform featured composer György Ligeti’s Musica Ricercata and Steve Reich’s revolutionary Piano Phase for the series finale.
