The passionate connections felt by 19th- and 20th-century composers to Johann Sebastian Bach and his legacy inspired some of the piano repertoire's most virtuoso compositions. In this program that presents transformations of Bach's music into brilliant and bravura works, you'll hear one of the most exalted arrangements of his Chaconne in D Minor, originally for solo violin: Ferruccio Busoni's hypnotic transcription is utterly mesmeric. Brahms was inspired by a melody from Handel, and the resulting set of variations and fugue bespeaks that particular Brahmsian texture that is like no other. Camille Saint-Saëns' short arrangement of the famous Sinfonia that came from one of Bach's solo violin partitas is scintillating. And the crème de la crème on this extraordinary program is Franz Liszt's monumental testament to the letters of Bach's name that correspond to four notes on the keyboard. The result is a towering masterpiece of depth and drama.
