Beginning with Baroque composer Couperin’s Pièces de Clavecin and J.S. Bach’s virtuosic Chromatic Fantasia and Fugue in D Minor, moving on to the Classical era with the Sonata for Flute and Obligato Keyboard in D Major by C.P.E. Bach, and ending with contemporary works by Ana Sokolovic, Olivier Messiaen, and György Ligeti, the performance will illustrate how technology impacts art.   Tickets, priced at $125 for the concert and cocktail reception, are available starting on August 1 at aconyc.org or by calling the ACO at (212) 362-2727, ext.4.
