SUMMARY:Music on Park Avenue with Per Tengstrand
DESCRIPTION:Music on Park Avenue is back! The popular series hosted by Scandinavia House and Per Tengstrand welcomes its audience back to Victor Borge Hall with this program featuring some of the most beloved solo piano works in the classical repertoire\, including the heavenly “Impromptu in G-flat” by Franz Schubert\, the intensely dramatic “Funeral March Sonata” by Frédéric Chopin\, and the beautiful\, comforting “Intermezzo in E-flat” by Johannes Brahms. \n“This has been a long wait\, and I am so excited to greet the audience at Scandinavia House again and to play for them. Finally\, we meet again!” —Per Tengstrand \nTickets to this event must be purchased in advance online at the link above; screenings will take place in Victor Borge Hall. Attendees are required to follow all Scandinavia House safety protocols\, including wearing masks during the program and observing social distancing rules in signage. Please read our full safety protocols here. \nMusic on Park Avenue will continue with performances on December 2\, 2021 and January 6\, February 17\, March 17\, and April 21\, 2022. \nThe Music on Park Avenue concert series is supported in part by a generous grant from The Barbro Osher Pro Suecia Foundation and in part by the Lynn Carter Fund of the ASF. \nAbout Per Tengstrand\nPer Tengstrand has firmly established himself as one of today’s most exciting pianists. He has been described by The Washington Post as “technically resplendent\, powerful\, intuitively secure\,” and by The New York Times as “a superb Swedish pianist” whose recital “was rewarding\, both for its unusual programming and for his eloquent\, technically polished performances.”Tengstrand is the subject of the acclaimed Swedish documentary The Soloist\, directed by Magnus Gertten and Stefan Berg (Sweden\, 2003)\, which was featured at the International Festival of Cinema and Technology in New York. \nIn 2005 he was decorated by King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden with the “Litteris et Artibus” Medal for outstanding service to the arts. During the pandemic\, Per started making music documentaries which were viewed and appreciated by people all over the world. As this line of work will continue\, the documentary Beethoven and the Freedom of the Will is planned to have its world premiere at Scandinavia House in 2022.
