Pianist Jeremy Denk is the guest on the latest episode of Speaking Soundly, a podcast in which host and MET Opera Principal Trumpet David Krauss talks with fellow performers about their creative process and lives as artists. Denk talks with Krauss about his acclaimed memoir, Every Good Boy Does Fine, shares lessons he learned from numerous piano teachers over the years, and more. “In addition to being one of America’s foremost pianists, a MacArthur ‘genius’ grant recipient, and Avery Fisher Prize winner,” Krauss says, “Jeremy Denk is also a New York Times best-selling author.” You can hear their conversation here via Spotify and Apple Podcasts:

On his latest album, Mozart Piano Concertos, Jeremy Denk is joined by The Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra for two Mozart concertos—No. 25 in C Major, K. 503, and No. 20 in D Minor, K. 466—bookending the composer's solo Rondo in A Minor, K. 511. "Denk approaches everything with questing intelligence and energy," says the Observer. "His ornaments and cadenzas are full of wit and imagination, his ear for detail incisive and bracing. The excellent Saint Paul players match his variety and range of expression. As ever, Denk’s probing liner notes shed light, making an already engrossing album more than worth the purchase.” You can hear it here.

Jeremy Denk has concert performances through the year, both in solo recitals and with orchestra, including dates in North Carolina and at Ravinia this month, followed by London, Providence, DC, Oberlin, Boston, Denver, San Diego, and more in the months ahead.

    "When you've had a six decade long career at the forefront of contemporary music, and your record label issues a 27-disc box set called Collected Works, you tend to want to look back a bit," says New Sounds host John Schaefer. "Steve Reich is the subject of such a box set." Reich is also Schaefer's guest for the full hour of the show, in which they do look back to hear and discuss some of those earlier works as well as two new works in the set, Jacob’s Ladder (2023) and Traveler’s Prayer (2020). You can hear the episode via WNYC here.
