Event Description

A Place to Listen is thrilled to be hosting American pianist, R. Andrew Lee for the 7th concert of our season.

Andrew, whose playing has been described as “Zen link in its perfection”, often performs music that he describes as being “minimal” in nature:

“I am entranced by the invitation that minimal music offers the listener. Rather than pushing and pulling listeners through a piece - manipulating us (no matter how deftly) into some experience - minimal music presents an invitation to explore a musical space slowly and carefully. Where Beethoven gave us drama that touches our souls, for which we rightly praise him, minimal music gives us a sunset, and we gaze in wonder.”

Over the last few years, Andrew has released 7 cds devoted to large scale, minimal piano works by living experimental music composers, including Wandelweiser composers Jürg Frey and Eva-Maria Houben. Andrew’s cd Eva-Maria Houben: Piano Music made the New Yorker’s Top 10 Classical Recordings of 2013, and his recording of Dennis Johnson’s November was named Time Out NY’s #1 Classical CD of 2013.

Program Details:

Craig Shepard: December
