Veteran pianist Garrick Ohlsson gave a masterful recital on Sunday, December 6 at Zellerbach Hall. Originally from White Plains, New York, Mr. Ohlsson now makes his home in San Francisco. He was heard last Fall with the San Francisco Symphony at Davies Hall in Sergei Rachmaninoff’s Third Piano Concerto conducted by Juraj Valčuha, (See my review of that concert in the October 17, 2014 issue of this paper.) At Zellerbach this Sunday, Mr. Ohlsson featured Beethoven’s Sonata No. 31 in A-flat major, Op. 110, Schubert’s Fantasy in C major, D. 760, “Wanderer,” and, after intermission, selections from Enrique Granados’s Goyescas. -more-
