Introduction Basso Moderno has commissioned over 100 lyrical works for solo bass and piano by some of the world's most prominent and exciting living composers. Composers from 40 countries and all 7 continents have written specifically for Allan Von Schenkel's virtuosic and highly individualized manner of playing. Kristen Williams' piano playing is a perfect complement to the intense voice of the solo bass. Williams is a focused musician who is able to share her devotion to the piano with the listener. Our program is designed to delight and surprise audiences with a combination of lush sounds, tasteful writing and lyricism.
