Video streamed event: Fazıl Say, piano

The dazzling iconoclastic Turkish pianist and Beethoven specialist Fazıl Say describes Beethoven’s piano sonatas as “a sacred text for musicians.”

He returns to 92NY for his first solo recital on our stage, performing a selection of Beethoven sonatas in the concert’s first half, followed by a selection of his own compositions blending Beethoven’s artistic vision with jazz-inflected Turkish rhythms. In a year filled with glorious Beethoven celebrations, Fazıl Say brings a program that truly stands apart. You’ll leave with your ears opened and your mind blown.
