144. On the edge of possibility: Beethoven, ”Appassionata” Sonata
Manage episode 361147190 series 3321752
Often on the edge, in life and music, Beethoven goes to extremes on the piano to show us the extreme depth of his feelings. His Appassionata Sonata is every bit as intense as its name suggests! Listening time 33 mins (podcast 10', music 23')
Listen to the whole piece here, played by Maurizio Pollini on piano on Youtube, Spotify, Apple Music (this links to mvt 1 and you need tracks 23,24,25) and Amazon music (also mvt 1 and you need tracks 7,8,9)
You can buy the piece as a high quality download from Presto music.
