Beethoven / Soryang - Piano Works By Beethoven Music CD

Beethoven, Schubert, Schumann and Brahms - Korean-born pianist SoRyang features the who's who of the Romantic period of classical music on her latest recording titled "piano". SoRyang, who at the age of 16 found a new home in Austria, begins by laying out Beethoven's Piano Sonata No. 8 in C minor Op. 13, the popular "Pathetique", which clearly illustrates the path from the Classical to the Romantic, which is reached with the "Wanderer Fantasia" in C major Op. 15, D 760 by Franz Schubert. Being one of his most accomplished and technically demanding works, Schubert is cited with "the devil should play this thing". A little intermezzo is given with the "Romanze" in F major, part of the Piano Pieces Op. 118 by Johannes Brahms, before SoRyang presents the monumental Sonata No. 3 in F minor Op. 14 (2nd revision of 1853) by Robert Schumann - a work that he initially described as "Concerto Without Orchestra for the Pianoforte".
