Pianist Pedja Mužijević – acclaimed for his technical virtuosity – celebrates the joy and creativity of mixtapes in real time, in a spirited performance of music by composers from Haydn to Philip Glass. Mužijević writes, “In the 1970s, cassette players revolutionized how we experienced music at home. For the first time, we could record, curate, and create our own playlists. Maybe some Mozart, a Dolly Parton song and Steve Reich. No algorithms, no rational explanations, just our personal choices. We called them mixtapes. This is an homage to that time. The program is divided into three chapters that could fit on a 60-minute cassette. From the theatrical flair of Carl Philip Emanuel Bach and Joseph Haydn to the playful, tipsy waltz of György Ligeti and passionate romanticism of Amy Beach, each piece invites the audience into a new world. Homage to Mixtapes is a celebration of the art of listening, joy of discovery, and a nod to the creative freedom of mixtapes.”
