Our Classical Americana series continues in our amazing 11th floor concert space at the Bowes Performing Arts building.

Enjoy the uniquely American innovations of the maverick composer Charles Ives, whose work has been a fixture in the career of Mr. Denk. He has been proclaimed by the New York Times as ‘a pianist you want to hear no matter what he performs.’ The concert starts at 7. Come early for a welcoming wine reception with KDFC staff at 6 and then meet the artists after the 1-hour concert.
