Poetry and Passion - Piano Recital by Sophia Agranovich

Poetry and Passion - Piano Recital by Sophia Agranovich

Internationally acclaimed virtuoso pianist Sophia Agranovich will perform a solo recital, sponsored by the Watchung Arts Center, on Saturday, June 7, at 8:00 PM.
Experience an unforgettable evening of passion, virtuosity, and timeless beauty!

The program opens with Schumann’s storm-swept Sonata No. 2 in G minor, followed by Chopin’s Ballade No. 4 in F minor—a masterpiece of poetic storytelling and dramatic depth. Schumann’s “Widmung,” reimagined by Liszt, soars with romantic fervor. The evening reaches its climax with Liszt’s Sonata in B minor—a monumental journey of passion, turmoil, and transcendence.
