DESCRIPTION

alt
Hailed by the Chicago Tribune as “the Leonard Bernstein of the keyboard,” Jeffrey Siegel has presented his Keyboard Conversations series from coast to coast, including more than 30 seasons in Scottsdale. Blending performance with lively commentary, Siegel offers witty insight into the lives of the great composers, explaining each work before performing it in its entirety.

Bach the Spellbinder features high-voltage, deeply expressive and romantic compositions, including the great composer’s Italian Concerto; the festive, exhilarating Toccata in D; and the stupendous Chromatic Fantasy and Fugue.

The concert also features Keyboard in the Sky,™ a video projection above the stage that enables the audience to see the pianist’s hands moving across the keyboard in real time from any seat in the theater.
