Description:

Weimar-born pianist Daniel Heide is one of the most sought-after song accompanists and chamber musicians of his generation, including collaborations with André Schuen. Since studying with Ludwig Betzel at the Franz Liszt Academy of Music in his hometown and receiving pioneering proposals from Christa Ludwig and Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, he has given concerts in Europe, Asia, etc. Since the Corona pandemic of 2020 brought unexpected time, Daniel Heide is now facing Beethoven's great sonatas anew in this second volume of his remarkable series. This volume contains three works written in the 19th century, when Beethoven's hearing was beginning to fail and his creative activities were going extremely well. The Sonata No. 15, also known as "Rural," is said to be one of Heide's favorite pieces, which he himself performed at the entrance examination for the Franz Liszt Academy of Music. Tokyo M-Plus
