Daniel Adam Maltz Performance, “Master of the Viennese fortepiano”
May 26 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm
$20.00
Doors open at 6:30pm
Tickets available at the door.
Enjoy Haydn and Mozart’s piano works performed as they intended them to be heard — on a Viennese fortepiano.
During the Classical era in Vienna, composers expected their keyboard music to entertain relatively small audiences in more intimate spaces than today’s 1500-seat concert halls. And, the era’s pianos — known as Viennese fortepianos — are very different from modern Steinways.
The Josephy Center is offering you this unique chance to experience the Classical era, so get your tickets now!

Daniel Adam Maltz is a fortepianist based in Vienna, Austria.
He has 50+ tour dates worldwide per year and specializes in Wiener Klassik (Viennese Classicism) — especially the works of Haydn, Mozart, and Beethoven — performed on the Viennese fortepianos of their time.
Called “master of the Viennese fortepiano,” critics praise Daniel’s performances for their “broad warmth” with “lavish but tasteful” playing (Classical Sonoma), his “very sensitive phrasing” with “marvelous dynamic contrasts” (Marblehead Current), and Daniel’s “extraordinary precision and lightness” (The Common Reader).
He debuted at Carnegie Hall (Weill) at age 22 and is a sought-after soloist, Lieder accompanist, and clinician.
Daniel also hosts Classical Cake, the podcast about Viennese classical music and culture.
Daniel studied fortepiano performance at the Royal Academy of Music in London and the Universität für Musik und darstellende Kunst in Vienna.
He refined his command of historical practices through private study with Andreas Staier and Ingomar Rainer.
Daniel is devoted to performing on Viennese fortepianos — utilizing the vast range of tones and colors familiar to the composers.
He brings his expertise in the Viennese sound, culture, philosophies, and performance practices of the Classical era to his interpretations.
