Pietro de Maria plays Schubert/Chopin

While waiting to get back to full health and play tennis, the "Pianoforte in Ateneo" concert series returns this week with Pietro de Maria, a former winner of the Geza Anda competition (possibly the most demanding, if not sadistic, piano competition in the world, since it draws on a huge repertoire and the pianists only know last minute what they are expected to play).

In line with the spirit of the Geza Anda competition, Pietro de Maria's recital will offer plenty of variety, as he plays works by Bach, Vacchi, the famous Sonata op. 25 n. 5 by Clementi, two Lieder by Schubert (transcribed by Liszt), mazurkas, ballade n.4 and scherzo n.2 by Chopin.
Entrance is free ( registration at https://www.eventbrite.it/e/biglietti-pietro-de-maria-il-pianoforte-in-ateneo-1982869000558 is recommended, in order to allow Cattolica University to have an idea of how many people will attend, but not mandatory )

Meeting point: 20:30 at the university entrance or possibly 19:15 near Cadorna, for a pre-concert aperitivo.
