Pianist Richard Goode To Perform Beethoven's Final Sonatas At Cooperstown Summer Music Festival
Goode, renowned globally as a leading interpreter of Beethoven, will present a program featuring the composer's last three piano sonatas and a selection of bagatelles.
The Cooperstown Summer Music Festival will continue its 26th anniversary season with a performance by acclaimed pianist Richard Goode on Tuesday, July 30, at 7pm in the Otesaga Resort Hotel Ballroom.
Goode, renowned globally as a leading interpreter of Beethoven, will present a program featuring the composer's last three piano sonatas and a selection of bagatelles:
- Piano Sonata No. 30 in E Major, Op. 109
- Piano Sonata No. 31 in A-flat Major, Op. 110
- Six Bagatelles from Op. 119
- Piano Sonata No. 32 in C Minor, Op. 111
Known for his insightful interpretations of uncommon emotional depth, Goode has earned reverent praise from critics and audiences alike. The New York Times has noted: "It is virtually impossible to walk away from one of Mr. Goode's recitals without the sense of having gained some new insight...into the works he played or about pianism itself."
"Richard Goode draws packed houses in major cities around the world, with audiences eager to experience his onstage performances," says Linda Chesis, Festival Artistic Director. "Don't miss this opportunity to hear such a legendary artist in the intimate setting of the Otesaga. Goode's performances offer humanity, humility, humor and optimism—qualities desperately needed in these uncertain times."
