Cal Performances favorite Richard Goode, universally recognized as one of the truly great pianists of our time, is revered not only for his exceptional technical artistry, but also for the extraordinary vitality and thoughtfulness he brings to each and every performance. First rising to prominence for his awe-inspiring interpretation of Beethoven's complete sonata cycle, Goode is today acknowledged as one of the deepest thinkers of the keyboard, a pianist who is powerfully equipped to communicate his sheer joy in making music while at the same time, probe the inner reaches of works by composers spanning the centuries. "A superb artist who attacks the classical repertoire with the full force of his heart and mind," says The Times, London.
