Episode 64 - 2006: Yehudi Wyner, Piano Concerto: 'Chiavi in Mano'
Update: 2025-12-19
Description
In this episode, Dave and Andrew discuss a piano concerto that the composer, Yehudi Wyner, said "permits expression of the raunchy as well as the refined." How will that duality sit with the hosts? Why doesn't a distinguished composer like Wyner get more performances?? And what former PP winners make an appearance in the episode?
