Parrish's Fall Salon Series Concludes
A concert by Niccolo Ronchi, a critically acclaimed Italian pianist, will conclude the fall Salon Series at the Parrish Art Museum in Water Mill tomorrow at 6 p.m. with a program loosely inspired by Halloween.
Mr. Ronchi has selected Liszt’s “Totentanz (Dance of the Dead),” a set of variations based on a 13th-century Latin hymn associated with the Mass for the Dead; Beethoven’s “Moonlight Sonata,” with its eerie funeral march; two Chopin nocturnes; Prokofiev’s Toccata in D minor (Op. 11), and Brahms’s “Paganini Variations,” which, in a bit of a stretch, a press release calls “diabolical if only for their difficulty.”
Mr. Ronchi, whose repertoire ranges from the Baroque to the late-20th century, has performed as a soloist in more than 200 recitals and concerts throughout the United States, Europe, Asia, and Australia. Tickets are $25, $10 for members.
