Beatrice Rana is “an artist of truly reflective grace … combining poetry and great skill, among the most gifted musicians of her generation” (Gramophone). In her 2022 Carnegie Hall recital, Rana performed Book I of Debussy’s famously demanding etudes “with wonderful intelligence and musicianship (and, of course, that gold-plated technique)” (The New Criterion). Tonight’s program includes Book II, six more pieces that, according to Debussy, underscore “the fact that the portals of music can only be opened with formidable hands.” Among other highlights, the recital also includes Prokofiev’s arresting Piano Sonata No. 6, which Rana has performed to considerable acclaim, and selections from Prokofiev’s Romeo and Juliet and Tchaikovsky’s The Nutcracker.
