Garrick OhlssonPiano

Grammy Award-winning soloist and violist with the world-renowned Takács Quartet Richard O’Neill joins eminent pianist Garrick Ohlsson for a rare program of viola-piano duets and solos.

Hailed by the Times (London) for his “ravishing” playing, O’Neill is quickly establishing himself as one of the great instrumentalists of his generation, collaborating with esteemed artists including Danil Trifonov, Emanuel Ax, Steven Isserlis, and others, and raising the profile of his instrument in the concert space. Ohlsson, who last appeared at 92NY in a stunning all-Chopin recital in 2023, is an avid chamber musician and a joy to experience in this setting. Hear O’Neill and Ohlsson in an afternoon of exquisite music-making, with repertoire gems including Schubert’s lyrical “Arpeggione” Sonata and Rachmaninoff’s lush Cello Sonata – sublime and revelatory in the viola transcription.
