Pictures Reframed unites two strikingly original artists multiple Grammy Award-winning Norwegian pianist Leif Ove Andsnes and South African-born, Berlin-based visual artist Robin Rhode in a collaborative performance of Mussorgskys epic piano suite Pictures at an Exhibition.
Renowned for his vital and distinctive performances, with more than 30 recordings spanning a repertoire from Bach to the present day, Mr. Andsnes will appear on a specially designed stage set that surrounds him with a multi-screen video accompaniment of Mr. Rhode's specially designed works. He will also perform selections from Schumanns Kinderscenen and a new work by Austrian composer Thomas Larcher.

The six performances in our two Classical series are made possible by the William R. Kenan, Jr. Trust Endowment.
