On October 16, 2017, pianist Leif Ove Andsnes appeared at The Jerome L. Greene Performance Space at WQXR to perform selections from his new album on Sony Classical.

Andsnes has been dazzling audiences around the world with his commanding technique and searching interpretations. He has been hailed by The New York Times as “a pianist of magisterial elegance, power and insight,” and by the Wall Street Journal as “one of the most gifted musicians of his generation.”
