The Chicago Symphony Orchestra has imported French pianist Pierre-Laurent Aimard for a few days, just long enough to squeeze in a couple of performances of two stellar examples of Modernist chamber music, Arthur Schoenberg’s “Pierrot Lunaire” and Stravinsky’s “The Soldier’s Tale.” The first performance was this past Saturday, but fear not, stragglers – the program repeats tomorrow at 7:30. Also, Kiera Duffy. (That’s Kiera Duffy over there.) (Andrew Patner, Chicago Sun-Times)
