On Sunday afternoon, the young American virtuoso Reed Tetzloff wowed the Maverick audience, filling the rustic splendor with playing the like of which we have not heard since the days of Horowitz and André Watts.

The opening Concerto Night of the Miami International Piano Festival peaked with a bracing reading of Schumann’s Piano Concerto by Reed Tetzloff. Combining artistic intelligence, immaculate technique, and daredevil bravura, Tetzloff’s playing was idiosyncratic in the best sense of the term. Leading an excellent 31-piece ensemble, conductor Hobart Earle was a full partner in this revitalized iteration of a repertoire standard.
