Join us for an intimate evening, "Music & Masters: Classical-era Vienna and the Fortepiano." Fortepianist Daniel Adam Maltz and soprano Jennifer Ellis Kampani present a rare experience of the music of Mozart, Haydn, and Beethoven, performed on the predecessor to the modern piano. This historically informed program recreates the intimate sound world of Classical-era Vienna, where music was written for smaller spaces and lighter instruments than today’s concert halls and modern pianos. About the Artists: Vienna-based fortepianist Daniel Adam Maltz specializes in historically informed performance. Called “the foremost performer in the world of the fortepiano” (Aspen Daily News), he has been praised for imbuing “[Beethoven’s] tenderness, longing, and frustration into the very notes” (Orlando Sentinel), for “lavish but tasteful” playing (Classical Sonoma), and as “a privilege to hear” (Marblehead Current). He studied at the Royal Academy of Music in London and at the University for Music and Performing Arts in Vienna, and performs exclusively on historic Viennese fortepianos. GRAMMY-nominated soprano Jennifer Ellis Kampani is known for her expressive interpretations of early repertoire. She has appeared at Carnegie Hall and performed with leading ensembles including American Bach Soloists, Apollo’s Fire, Opera Lafayette, and Portland Baroque Orchestra. She lives in Los Angeles and teaches at USC. The Timken Museum of Art on Facebook / Instagram

Step into the world of sixteenth-century portraiture and discover how women artists turned the human body into a powerful language. This engaging reception and talk by Bronwen Wilson will explore the poses and gestures in Renaissance portraits, revealing the inventive ways women - led by the trailblazing Sofinisba Anguissola - used "the mute eloquence of gesture" to make their paintings speak. In an era when portraiture was often dismissed as a mechanical skill suited to women perceived to lack imagination, these artists defied convention. They infused their sitters with personality, narrative, and emotion - proving that a glance, a hand, or the tilt of a head could speak volumes. Join us for an illuminating evening of art, history, and conversation inspired by the museum's fall exhibition, "Poetic Portraits: Identity and Allegory in 16th-Century Europe." EVENT PROGRAM 4:30-5 p.m. Wine & Hors d'Oeuvres Reception 5-5:45 p.m. Lecture with Bronwen Wilson 5:45-6 p.m. Q & A, Free Time to Explore the Exhibition About the Speaker: Bronwen Wilson is the Edward W. Carter Chair in European Art at UCLA, where she also directs the Center for 17th- and 18th-Century Studies and the William Andrews Clark Memorial Library. She currently serves as Vice President of the Renaissance Society of America. Her research focuses on early modern visual culture, with particular interests in portraiture, physiognomy, and cross-cultural exchange. She has published widely on these topics and is the editor and co-editor of several recent volumes. A new book on portraiture and physiognomy is forthcoming. $65 Non-Members | $50 Members The Timken Museum of Art on Facebook / Instagram
