Description: In 1819, publisher Anton Diabelli asked for one variation on a waltz tune for an anthology by various composers; Beethoven wrote 33 and took four years. András Schiff brings his "engrossing … constantly surprising" approach (The New York Times) to bear on this challenging work as the finale of a recital that also includes a sonata by Bartók, the focus of Schiff's Perspectives residency this season at Carnegie Hall.

Venue Description: Carnegie Hall, renowned universally as one of the most prestigious venues in the US for classical and popular music, distinguished by its beauty, history and majestic acoustics, brings extraordinary music and musicians to its three stages year-round. In addition to hosting classical music and symphony performances, vocal recitals, music festivals, and multicultural world music, Carnegie Hall provides education programs and fosters the future of music through the cultivation of new works, artists, and audiences.

Carnegie Hall is located at 881 Seventh Ave. (between West 56th and 57th streets) in Midtown Manhattan, two blocks south of Central Park. A limited number of student/senior citizen discount tickets, priced at $10, are available for select Carnegie Hall presentations in Stern Auditorium / Perelman Stage. The tickets go on sale at the Box Office at 12pm on the day of the performance until one hour before concert time. $10 tickets for Weill Recital Hall events, subject to availability, go on sale one hour before concert time. There are also a limited number of partial-view seats, priced at $10, which are available for Carnegie Hall presentations that take place in Stern Auditorium / Perelman Stage, excluding Carnegie Hall Family Concerts and gala events.
