Meany Hall – Katharyn Alvord Gerlich Theater

Seattle favorite Garrick Ohlsson has established himself as a pianist of magisterial interpretive and technical prowess. Regarded as a leading exponent of the music of Frédéric Chopin, he commands an enormous repertoire ranging over the entire piano literature. He brings a full program of Chopin, Schubert and Beethoven, along with an evocative work by Ursula Mamlok. Ohlsson’s brilliant stage presence and easy connection to audiences amplifies his well-earned reputation for bringing piano masterpieces to life with virtuosic firepower and resonant interpretations.

 

A vigorous, crisp and clear performance without a trace of Romantic excess.
