Event Details

Featuring Frederic Rzewski’s De Profundis and new interpretations of Sondheim classics.
Contemporary specialist and advocate Anthony de Mare arrives Sunday, November 17th with Frederic Rzewski’s De Profundis a 1995 work written for, premiered by and recorded by de Mare. All Music Guide hailed the recording as “a revelatory reading, in that those works that were written for piano and voice have never been heard outside of the composer's own interpretations.” Based on a letter Oscar Wilde wrote to his lover, the poet and journalist Lord Alfred Douglas, during his own imprisonment for gross indecency, The New York Times described De Profundis thusly: “Oscar Wilde’s prison cri du coeur makes Wilde’s suffering disconcertingly personal and physical. While playing the dizzying solo part, the pianist also speaks the text, hits his or herself, whistles and seems to sob.”
