Heaven & Hell: William Fried & Mari Kawamura, piano
Ring in the spring with competing depictions of the divine and the profane. Guest pianist Mari Kawamura joins Davidson’s William Fried for performances of two twentieth century classics: Stravinsky’s transgressive, riot-inducing The Rite of Spring, now in a lean, new arrangement; and Messiaen’s heavenly Visions de l’amen, originally composed and premiered in WWII occupied Paris.
