Orchestra of St. Luke's with Jonathan Biss

Diving into his obsession with Beethoven’s music, Jonathan Biss is in the fourth year of his Beethoven/5 commissioning project: the five Beethoven piano concertos each presented with a contemporary composer’s response. After welcoming the NY Premiere of Timo Andres’ entry in 2016, we are proud to be again a co-commissioner for the latest installment, Caroline Shaw’s Watermark, a response to Beethoven’s 3rd Piano Concerto.

“Biss radiates a confidence solidly based on prodigious technique, every never needing recharging, and a stylistic perception both intuitive and intelligent.” — The Washington Post
