The 2026-2027 Season
Jeremy Denk, piano
MacArthur Fellow and Avery Fisher Prize winner Jeremy Denk is celebrated for “performances of vast imagination, beauty, profundity, and wit” — and this program delivers: Bach, the incandescent Études of Unsuk Chin, a rediscovered gem by Hélène de Montgeroult, and Beethoven's final two sonatas in a single, revelatory afternoon.
Steven Osborne, piano
Scottish pianist Steven Osborne OBE — described as having “that special ability to make music that you thought you knew inside out seem fresh and totally alive” — closes the season with “Reflections on the Waltz”, moving from Schumann, Satie, and Ravel to Beethoven's towering Diabelli Variations in an afternoon of extraordinary range and depth.
Janice Carissa, piano
Making her San Francisco recital debut, Gilmore Young Artist Janice Carissa plays with “the multicolored highlights of a mature pianist” — bringing Bach, Philip Glass, Rzewski, and Prokofiev's towering Eighth Sonata to Noe Music in a wide-ranging, carefully crafted afternoon.
