This concert embodied the bountiful extended potential of the piano - the now "classic avant-garde" prepared piano of John Cage; George Crumb, the venerable master still discovering new means of expression within his inimitable style; and Kelly Moran's latest contribution to the prepared piano repertoire alongside Suzanne Farrin's bold forays into new sonic territory.
