Rosenthal's Washington recital features Rosenthal works
Moriz Rosenthal opened his present tour at the New National Theater with a rich program including Beethoven opus 19, Chopin opus 58, Schubert Moment Musicaux No 3, Henselt pieces, Rosenthal’s Papillons and Humoresque, and Strauss themes. Encore selections and Poldhaï’s Poeme Val Nanine followed as a crowd-pleasing finish. The audience praised his control and power, though reactions were tempered after quieter passages. Observers noted Beethoven and Chopin movements displayed deep interpretive restraint and spiritual depth, with Rosenthal shaping variation moods over virtuosity. Notable attendees included Percy Foster and Mrs Foster among others.
