Three Pianos Explode Winterreise at the Ontological Theater Feb. 25-March 20 in NYC

Here's a wild romp in NYC not to be missed: from February 25 to March 20 at the Ontological Theater, Rick Burkhardt, Alec Duffy and Dave Maloy will be presenting Three Pianos, an irreverent look at Schubert's Winterreise. More about the event:

Based on Schubert's "Winterreise," his classic song cycle on winter heartbreak, Three Pianos takes the form of a musical lecture/demo gone astray, with the three creators each at their own piano, leading the audience through their respective passions for the piece. Compositional mischief, shifting rivalries, freezing dances and some unfortunate butchery of the German language ensue.

Just to give you an idea of what Rick, Alec, and Dave are actually up to, watch their rendition of Die Kraehe:



Three Pianos also needs your help with funding, so if you want to assist in any way, you can check out their Kickstarter page.
