Beethoven / Sohn - Jeungbeum Sohn Music CD

Universal music, resounding philosophy, and the tragedy of fate: breathtaking tales of the night are presented by the Korean pianist JeungBeum Sohn on his new GENUIN album. The winner of the ARD Music Competition and the International German Piano Award plays works by Schubert, Beethoven, and Ravel that deal with powerful, touching, and demonic finalities. Schubert's late sonata in A minor, Beethoven's Op. 111, and Ravel's Gaspard de la Nuit are no easy fare. JeungBeum Sohn, however, performs these pieces with a sweeping breadth and deep earnestness while never neglecting pianistic brilliance and richness of color. Equally impressive and moving.
