Adam Tendler Inheritances

After his father’s unexpected death, pianist Adam Tendler used his entire inheritance, a wad of cash received in a parking lot, to commission new piano works from a broad spectrum of today’s most exciting and recognized composers — his friends — to help him process and reconcile his loss, while exploring the idea of inheritance itself. Woven into one intimate and unforgettable program, Inheritances tells a universal story of lineage, loss, and place — born from private grief and transformed into a meditation on confronting the past while facing the future.
