Genius Or Nuts? *Sold Out*
NUS Piano Ensemble
23 Mar | 8pm | UCC Theatre | $19 & $16 
Wagner was an unprecedented musical titan. Yet, his infamous anti-Semitic rants seem grossly at odds with his abilities as a musician and composer. Composers Beethoven, Rachmaninoff and Irving Berlin, among many others, suffered symptoms of bipolar disorders and yet created some of the most joyful music the world has heard. Is there a link between genius and insanity?
Join the NUS Piano Ensemble for a thrilling ride dissecting the ingenuity, the devilishness and the zaniness of composers, their works and their lives. From Mozart’s textbook ingenuity, Wagner’s anti-Semitic views to Stravinsky’s dissonant Petrushka Chord, we promise you will never quite look at the composers, or hear their music, the same way again.
Genius Or Nuts? — THAT is the question.
