About the event
The Bridgehampton Museum presents Vienna-based Daniel Adam Maltz performing on a 1792 Viennese fortepiano — the early piano as Mozart and Beethoven knew it — on October 10th & 11th at 5pm.
The concert is part of Maltz’ 70-city North American tour. “Hearing these pieces on a Viennese fortepiano in a more intimate space like the Bridgehampton Museum helps the music come alive in a new, extraordinary way” says Maltz, adding, “I’ll introduce each piece and, post-concert, the audience can ask me questions and see this rare instrument up close.”
Called “master of the Viennese fortepiano” (The Common Reader) and “the foremost performer in the world of the fortepiano” (Aspen Daily News), critics say about Maltz, “The recital was a triumph... It was a privilege to hear an artist of this caliber” (Marblehead Current).
“We are so excited to have Daniel join us for this two-night performance,” says Connor Flanagan, Executive Director. “Our goal is to help our community engage with history in many different ways and this is just another way to bring appreciation to the past.”
Maltz insists that “These composers weren’t figures in a dusty history book. They were flesh-and-blood humans using music to communicate deep emotions that are still very relatable today.”
