What does a contemporary piano recital look like today? Versatile pianist Alfredo Ovalles offers a multidisciplinary answer to this question. With a specially curated program—co-curated and staged by Nika Bauman—Ovalles introduces audiences to the many exciting dimensions of contemporary piano composition.

The evening features works by Margareta Ferek Petrić, Alvin Lucier, Missy Mazzoli, Angélica Negrón, and Ovalles himself, expanding the piano beyond notes and keys into a performance language that incorporates improvisation, text, and video.
