Jan Gerdes - piano miniatures

In the organizer's words:

Contemporary piano miniatures: the brief musical moment in which a thought, a mood, a portrait or even just a fragment of something larger is revealed, a musical event condensed into short compositional formations or improvisationally thrown into expressive moods.
improvisationally thrown down in expressive atmospheric images...
What characteristics characterize the miniature-like in piano pieces as a creative principle, which as a compositional form stands in contrast to musical forms such as sonatas that require substantially larger architectural arcs?
With piano miniatures, the Berlin pianist Jan Gerdes presents a solo program of short piano pieces which, through rapid cuts or the immediate succession of the most diverse compositions, allows their aesthetic and stylistic differences and the associated diverse acoustic impressions to collide directly.

Among others, works by:
William Byrd (1543-1623) Pavane "The Earle of Salisbury" (1613)
György Kurtag (*1926) Playing with the Infinite (1979)
Meredith Monk (*1942) Railroad (1981)
