Though it's the 'dog days' of August, there is plenty of music to keep us all out of the doldrums.
Mostly Mozart at Lincoln Center brings some stellar talent to its stages: the Cliburn-award winning Italian pianist Beatrice Rana appears with the MM Festival Orchestra on August 4 and 5, the violinist Joshua Bell and the cellist Steven Isserlis are featured in the Brahms "Double Concerto" on August 8 and 9 (the two will also give a late-night chamber recital on August 9), and the handsome musicians from Denmark, the Danish String Quartet, perform an early evening show at Alice Tully Hall and a late night recital at Kaplan Penthouse on August 10. And, violin phenom Gil Shaham performs the Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto with the festival orchestra on August 18 and 19.
Your ticket for each orchestra performance also gives you entry to a pre-concert recital at 6:30 pm. This is a great opportunity to hear Beatrice Rana play a solo Bach partita (August 4 and 5), and Gil Shaham perform Prokofiev with his wife, the excellent violinist Adele Anthony (August 18 and 19).
Across town, the tenor Lawrence Brownlee performs in two of the intimate spaces at the Park Avenue Armory on August 9 and 11. The program begins with a recital of lieder and art songs, with the pianist Myra Huang at the Board of Officers Room. Then the performers and audience move to the Veterans Room, where Brownlee performs jazz standards and American spirituals with the jazz pianist Jason Moran.
In Greenwich Village, Le Poisson Rouge brings cellist Sophia Bacelar and pianist/composer Dan Tepfer to the stage on August 13. The program features a re-imagined version of a Bach Cello Suite with improvisations by Tepfer, plus tangos by Astor Piazzolla. On August 28, the fiery pianist Taka Kigawa presents his annual late-summer program at LPR, this time featuring Olivier Messiaen’s monumental masterpiece, “Catalogue d’oiseaux”.
Speaking of Piazzolla, you can explore the tango master's complicated personal relationships and far-reaching musical legacy in a program of words and music at Joe's Pub on August 5 and 6 in "That's Not Tango".
Stay tuned: In September, a host of early season performances and festivals roll in, followed by the official season openings at Carnegie Hall and New York Philharmonic.
