Emanuel Ax plays Schubert’s Impromptu Op. 142, No. 2 & “Der Müller und der Bach”

Oct 14, 2018


Emanuel Ax, piano

Franz Schubert’s Impromptu in A-flat Major, Op. 142, No. 2 (D. 935/2)

“Der Müller und der Bach” from Die schöne Müllerin, D. 795, trans. Liszt

Excerpt from East West Street: A Song of Good and Evil, performed at the 92nd Street Y on October 14, 2018. Watch the full program. 

Emanuel Ax was born in the town of Lviv, where the story of East West Street is set. Reflecting on the theme of global justice, East West Street explored issues of morality, art, and humanity against the backdrop of three men whose lives intertwined during the Nuremberg trials. How do two people at the extremes of good and evil find solace in the same aria? Through the power of words and the beauty of music, East West Street delivered a provocative exploration of heartache and hope.

The Inflection series is made possible by a generous gift from Eva Colin Usdan and John Usdan to the Inventions and Variations Fund for the Arts.
