Back by popular demand, pianist Joel Schoenhals returns to the House with the second concert in The Schubert Project, an ongoing celebration of the masterworks of Franz Schubert.
The evening features the Sonata in D Major, D. 850, a radiant and exhilarating work filled with lyricism, rhythmic energy, and sweeping virtuosity.

The concert concludes with one of Schubert’s most powerful and intimate creations, the Fantasy in F Minor for Four Hands, performed with his wife, pianist Bing Li.

Known for performances that combine warmth, brilliance, and expressive depth, Schoenhals consistently fills the House—and audiences’ hearts. Join us for an unforgettable night of Schubert at his most bold and dramatic.
