    "Mr. Denk, clearly, is a pianist you want to hear no matter what he performs, in whatever combination – both for his penetrating intellectual engagement with the music and for the generosity of his playing." -- The New York Times

    - a concert seat in Ozawa Hall 
    - free parking in the Lodewick Visitor Center X Lot
    - bus transportation leaving Lodewick at 4pm, returning around midnight
