We would like to share with you our first Piano Talks episode: Becoming Beethoven.
Beethoven’s music is anything but static, and neither was the composer’s mind. We begin the series by meeting a young Beethoven, with a rarely heard piece that he used to introduce himself back in the day, soon to develop into the image of the genius we all remember.
