Editor’s Note – The second event of Parlance Chamber Concerts’s ninth season will take place this coming Sunday afternoon, Nov. 15 at 3 p.m. at West Side Presbyterian Church. Here Michael Parloff, the founder and director of the very popular classical music series gives our readers background to the concert.
I am very excited to introduce pianist Jeremy Denk and violinist Stefan Jackiw to our community. Jeremy is the winner of a 2013 MacArthur “Genius” Fellowship. He will team up with the scintillating young violinist Stefan Jackiw, widely recognized as one of his generation’s most captivating artists.
This noteworthy duo will perform cherished sonatas by Johannes Brahms and César Franck in counterpoint with rarely performed gems by the iconoclastic American master, Charles Ives. Jeremy will enrich the afternoon with his insightful, thought-provoking commentary.
