Beth Levin (piano)About
The Hammerklavier Sonata forms the symphonic climax of Beethoven's piano work with its final fugue that transcends all boundaries. This concert programme is introduced with a suite of George Frideric Handel, including a set of wonderful variations. Handel was Beethoven's favorite composer, and the motto "All power to the dominant" could stand above both composers. Between the works of the two old masters is the 3rd Disegno by the great Swedish composer Anders Eliasson, who died in 2013, entitled 'Carosello'. This free-tonal cantabile study in 5/4 time creates a sphere of weightlessness in contrast to the cadential purposefulness of Handel and Beethoven.
"One may agree with it or not. No one plays Beethoven like Beth Levin." - Christoph Schlüren, 2013
