Schumann’s 1839 Humoresque is contrasted with Jörg Widmann’s contemporary Elf Humoresken in this wide-ranging program of piano music that highlights unexpected connections across centuries. Yefim Bronfman, one of today’s most beloved artists, also performs the second of Prokofiev's three emotionally intense "War Sonatas".
