Garrick Ohlsson, piano
The Margaret Baxtresser
Annual Piano Concert
Tuesday, May 6, 2008, 7:30 pm
Garrick Ohlsson is true to his art. The great warmth and assurance of his performances are rendered with clarity of purpose and magisterial interpretive and technical prowess.
This legendary pianist is in great demand around the world. Although he has long been regarded as one of the world's leading exponents of the music of Frédéric Chopin, Mr. Ohlsson commands an enormous repertoire which ranges over the entire piano literature.
Tuesday Musical audiences have had the pleasure of hearing Garrick Ohlsson more than once on our series and, with each time, we are spell bound by his incredible artistry. It is an honor that Garrick Ohlsson will be the second pianist showcased as a Margaret Baxtresser Piano Concert performer.
