About the album

ME and the middle and later ones

A result of the the Pandemic and challenging the re discovery of Beethoven’s sonatas Vol. III

„In each volume of my complete recording of the piano sonatas of Ludwig van Beethoven, I have clearly chosen the order of pieces with autobiographical criteria in mind. Over the past 15 years, my work as a pianist has increasingly migrated toward music-making in partnership with others. Although I started out mainly as a chamber musician collaborating with instrumentalists and singers, the focus has increasingly shifted toward duo recitals, primarily vocal recitals on a worldwide scale – but I never could have dreamed that such appearances would become so frequent that they would allow me to earn a stable living.

Whenever I was asked what became of my solo playing, I had to answer with a shrug, explaining that I needed a sort of sabbatical to let me practice solo repertoire undisturbed before I started giving solo piano recitals again. Then, covid struck. All of a sudden, I had time on my hands. .…...(Excerpt from the Booklet nores by Daniel Heide)

ICH und die Mittleren und Späteren

Ergebnis der Pandemie Bewältigung und Wiederentdeckung Beethovens Sonaten

Vol. III

„Meine Gesamtaufnahme der Klaviersonaten von Ludwig van Beethoven folgt in der Reihung und Programmierung der einzelnen Volumes definitiv autobiografischen Zügen. In meiner pianistischen Arbeit der letzten 15 Jahre entstand ein immer größer werdender Fokus auf das partnerschaftliche Musizieren. Was als allgemein kammermusikalisches Musizieren mit Instrumentalisten und Sängern begann, hat sich immer mehr hin zur einer Konzerttätigkeit im Duo entwickelt, in der Hauptsache in Liederabenden weltweit. Dass dieser Ansatz in seiner Häufigkeit zum stabilen Broterwerb reichen würde, hatte ich früher kaum zum Träumen gewagt.

Auf die Frage, was eigentlich mit meinem Solospiel sei, konnte ich immer nur schulterzuckend antworten und darauf verweisen, dass ich dafür mal so etwas wie ein Sabbatical bräuchte, um in Ruhe Solo-Repertoire zu üben und zurückzukommen zum Spielen von Klavierabenden. Dann kam Corona. Plötzlich gab es die Zeit. …...(Auszug aus dem Booklettext, des Interpreten)

Composer(s)

Ludwig van Beethoven

Ludwig van Beethoven was a German composer and pianist. A crucial figure in the transition between the Classical and Romantic eras in Western art music, he remains one of the most famous and influential of all composers. His best-known compositions include nine symphonies, five piano concertos, one violin concerto, 32 piano sonatas, 16 string quartets, his great Mass the Missa solemnis, and one opera, Fidelio. Together with Mozart and Haydn, he was part of the First Viennese School. Born in Bonn, then the capital of the Electorate of Cologne and part of the Holy Roman Empire, Beethoven displayed his musical talents at an early age and was taught by his father Johann van Beethoven and by composer and conductor Christian Gottlob Neefe. At the age of 21 he moved to Vienna, where he began studying composition with Joseph Haydn, and gained a reputation as a virtuoso pianist. He lived in Vienna until his death. By his late 20s his hearing began to deteriorate, and by the last decade of his life he was almost totally deaf. In 1811 he gave up conducting and performing in public but continued to compose; many of his most admired works come from these last 15 years of his life.
