Scottish pianist Steven Osborne makes a long-awaited return to FCM’s series, this time with violinist Benjamin Beilman. One of the youngest artists to be appointed to the faculty of the Curtis Institute of Music, Beilman is the recipient of a Borletti-Buitoni Trust Fellowship, an Avery Fisher Career Grant, and a London Music Masters Award. Osborne’s numerous awards include The Royal Philharmonic Society’s Instrumentalist of the Year, two BBC Music Magazine Awards, and two Gramophone Awards. Works by Clara Schumann and Lili Boulanger will be performed alongside sonatas by Brahms and Franck.
“Mr. Beilman’s handsome technique, burnished sound and quiet confidence…showed why he has come so far so fast.” –The New York Times
