Bax is back in town
Look around the local chamber recital and orchestral concert scene, and the chances are increasingly good that you’ll run across the pianist Alessio Bax.
The Italian-born virtuoso is both a dexterous soloist and a congenial collaborator, and the range of repertoire he favors makes his appearances winningly unpredictable.
Down the road are concerto appearances with the Santa Rosa Symphony and Symphony Silicon Valley, but first he offers a solo recital at the Steinway Society in San Jose this weekend.
