The Village Trip: Quattro Mani – American Primitive & Inventors of Genius Weekend

Event Navigation

Renowned duo pianists Susan Grace and Steven Beck perform works by Lou Harrison, John Cage, Arnold Schoenberg, John Adams and Fred Lerdahl who, with linguist Ray Jackendoff, developed the Chomsky-inspired generative theory of tonal music, an endeavor inspired by Leonard Bernstein’s Norton Lectures, given at Harvard in 1973. Grace and Beck form one of the most dynamic piano duos of the modern day.

The concert is part of The Village Trip’s American Primitive and Inventors of Genius Weekend.
