Cameron Carpenter performed his own arrangments of Horowitz's Variations on a Theme from Bizet's Carmen, as well as Bach's Étude-Fantasy for Pedals Alone, from Cello Suite No. 1, Prélude, as encores.

With a proclivity for the dramatic and unparalleled technical prowess, Cameron Carpenter is a superstar of the organ. This musical renegade demonstrates his veneration for Bach in an evening devoted to a selection of the composer’s music, including some arrangements and interpretations that are uniquely Carpenter’s own.

“No other musician of Carpenter’s generation has more adeptly fused shrewd showmanship, dazzling technique, and profound thinking about his instrument and his place in the musical cosmos.” —San Francisco Chronicle
