PEARLS OF WISDOM
Hailed as one of the best pianists of our time by local critics, dapper French pianist Jean-Yves Thibaudet exudes a certain savoir faire—and natty sense of style. His ability to find subtle colors and surprising textures in even the most familiar classics led the New York Times to exclaim, “every note he fashions is a pearl.” Catch this not-to-be missed performer for a three-night residency with the New York Philharmonic starting tonight. Manfred Honeck conducts Beethoven’s Symphony No. 7, while Thibaudet shines out during Grieg’s majestic Piano Concerto.
