About Duo B!z’art play Mahler, Bernstein, Corigliano and Hearn

Our celebration of Bruno Walter reaches an appropriately epic, spectacular, climax with his astonishing transcription of Mahler’s Symphony No 1, “The Titan”, played by the Belgian duo of André Roe and Geoffrey Baptiste, who have, over the last two decades, become one of the top piano duos in Europe. Leonard Bernstein began his career as Walter’s assistant at the NYPO, making his sensational debut at Carnegie Hall in 1943 when the Austrian refugee was ill with ‘flu, so it is appropriate that we will hear his West Side Story Suite. His fellow American, and friend, John Corigliano’s Gazebo Dances are exuberant, exhilarating foot-tappers. Strange and Solemn Music by Scotland’s John Hearne is as moody and evocative as its Shakespearean title suggests.
