Asiya Korepanova | 24 Liszt Etudes at Merkin Hall

On February 21, Meridian Performances will present Asiya Korepanova as she does the impossible with her signature tour de force concert of Liszt's 24 Etudes at Merkin Hall. Korepanova is the only pianist currently performing the full canon of Liszt's etudes in one evening, and this appearance marks her New York City debut of this monumental achievement. Ms. Korepanova is a prolific pianist and composer. Her concerto repertoire features over 60 works, and she is the author of solo piano transcriptions of "Ein Heldenleben' by Richard Strauss, Rachmaninoff's Cello Sonata, and Tchaikovsky's Manfred Symphony.

Of her unique program of 24 Etudes, Asiya enthuses, "It is a mesmerizing and overwhelming experience. This program displays the most colorful, dazzling, and deeply spiritual sides of Liszt's genius. It astounds me personally in every performance as I find something new in this profoundly multilayered music."
