Hill Auditorium
Canceled: Paul Lewis, piano
A frequent soloist with the world’s great orchestras (including the Berlin Philharmonic, Boston Symphony, and Chicago Symphony), Paul Lewis is regarded as one of the foremost interpreters of the central European classical repertoire. Following explorations of Beethoven and Brahms in his recent UMS appearances, Lewis continues the European tradition in a recital program that includes Mussorgsky’s majestic showstopper, Pictures at an Exhibition, plus virtuosic gems by Mendelssohn, Haydn, Schubert, and Scriabin.
