=====================================================================
Today will
be our last Podcast Vault post for awhile, as we prepare for a new yearly
programming plan starting September 1st. I will issue a separate
blog post with more details in the coming days.
For most of
the last two weeks, we’ve been sharing our Beethoven / Mozart / Scarlatti
survey of piano sonatas, and many of the Beethoven posts from 2019 also paired
sonatas with a piano concerto. Today’s share is one of our earliest to exploit
that programming ruse, with two somatas and one concerto that had until then
been provided “partially”. The sonatas are the Moonlight and Pastoral
and the concerto was the Emperor concerto.
The
soloists featured are popular artists on our podcasts: Wilhelm Kempff, Vladimir
Ashkenazy and Vladimir Horowitz. As filler, I found this YouTube playlist of
Beethoven favourites played by Horowitz, including the very same performance of
the concerto…
I think you
will (still) love this music too.
