Since being featured by The New York Times as the pianist poised for a breakthrough in September 2006, Simone Dinnerstein has performed on the Metropolitan Museum of Arts prestigious Accolades series, debuted with the American Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Leon Botstein, and signed an exclusive recording contract with Telarc International.  Now this remarkably talented artist brings her unique abilities to Geneva when she performs the complete "Goldberg Variations" by J.S. Bach.

Dinnerstein describes her approach to this music as a current interpretation of a timeless work. "Bach’s ’Goldberg Variations’ is a piece with a profound sense of structure and organization, and yet the listener never experiences these elements as constraints," she said. "It is as expressive as it is diverse. Each variation explores a distinctive mood, a particular sound world, and a unique shade of character and emotion. We live in a world that is unimaginably different from Bach’s, but this piece speaks to us as powerfully as though it was written for our time."

Presented in conjunction with American Landmark Festivals.
