Description

From the Queen’s Hall in Edinburgh, South Korean pianist Yeol Eum Son performs music by 19th-century keyboard greats.

Carl Czerny (known for his rigorous piano studies) uses a well-known French tune of the time ‘La Ricordanza’ for a colourful theme and variations. Next we hear from Czerny’s teacher Beethoven, his monumental ‘Hammerklavier’ Sonata with its arresting slow movement and technical fireworks finale.
