Fortepianist Daniel Adam Maltz in Concert

The Bridgehampton Museum presents, a concert by Vienna-based Fortepianist Daniel Adam Maltz performing the works of Haydn and Mozart’s as they intended them to be heard — in a private home on a period instrument.

During the Classical era in Vienna, composers expected their keyboard music to entertain relatively small audiences in more intimate settings than today’s large concert halls. And, the era’s pianos (known as “fortepianos”) are very different from modern Steinways.

Fortepianist Daniel Adam Maltz studied Historical Performance at the Royal Academy of Music in London and at Vienna’s University for Music and Performing Arts. He performs on historic Viennese fortepianos, utilizing the vast range of tones, colors, and techniques familiar to Classical era composers.
