American pianist Jeremy Denk presents a program covering three centuries of music from Bach to Ligeti. In one of his rare appearances in Germany, he performs Ligeti’s Études––each one of them “a bite-sized bit of infinity,” as Denk has said––and Bach’s English Suite No. 2, together with works by Alban Berg and Franz Liszt.The concert comes to a close with Schumann’s Fantasy in C major, which is dedicated to Liszt.
