After his father’s unexpected death, pianist Adam Tendler used his inheritance, a wad of cash received in a parking lot, to begin a commissioning project inviting a broad spectrum of sound artists and composers to create new piano works exploring the idea of 'inheritance' itself. Woven into one intimate program, these pieces tell a universal story of lineage, loss, and place, and become a meditation on confronting our past while moving forward into the future.

Please note: The Parkway Theater requires proof of COVID-19 vaccination or negative test result for entry to all events. This policy is detailed here.

Inheritances was supported in part by Anthony B. Creamer III.

Special thanks to
The Schubert Club for donating the piano used in the performance, and to our hospitality sponsor the Minneapolis Club.
