Per Tengstrand plays Rachmaninoff

Join us on April 9 for our final installment of a special concert series celebrating 25 years of Music on Park Avenue, the acclaimed performance series curated by Swedish pianist Per Tengstrand that has been with Scandinavia House since its inauguration in 2000.

In honor of Scandinavia House’s silver anniversary year, Tengstrand has presented a program of chamber music performances featuring distinguished guest musicians.

The most popular piano concerto ever written, played in a way you never heard before! For the final performance of the series, Per Tengstrand will be joined by students from Princeton University for a version of Sergei Rachmaninoff’s iconic Piano Concerto No. 2 in C minor arranged for piano and string quartet. We will also hear all of the string players in solo pieces by J.S. Bach, César Franck and York Bowen.

Thanks to a generous loan by Victor Borge’s grandson Finn, concerts will be performed on Victor Borge’s personal Steinway piano.
