Periah concert yesterday!
on: March 26, 2007, 09:30:00 PM
Yesterday was the Murray Periah concert. It was excellent of course. He played Beethoven op.14 sonatas, Bach partita no.3, Schumann Phantasiestucke, and Chopin's F minor ballade.

He played THREE encores:

Brahms 118/2
Chopin 10/4
Chopin 15/2

I  was so glad i got to go.

SO many of those are my favorite pieces.  I can only imagine how divine that must have been.  I love Murray Perahia.  Love him.
