Kristian Bezuidenhout, the South African-born, London-based artist, takes Cal Performances audiences on a journey through his instrument’s evolution. Moving from the harpsichord to the fortepiano—the idiosyncratic ancestor of the modern piano—Bezuidenhout performs a sequence of works by J.S. Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, Clara Schumann, and Mendelssohn.
