Classical corner - II

This clip, with both audio and video, shows a girl of 13 giving a magnificent performance of the the 1st movement from the 1st Piano Concerto by Beethoven. Another of my favourites, although the 3rd movement tops the list of Beethoven faves. If I find a decent recording of that, I'll put it up as well. One note of warning: the video does not make it to the end of the piece. YouTube have a 10 minute limit on duration of their videos.

  1. For some strange reason I cannot get this video to play either through your journal or through Youtube.  Disappointed but will try again later.

  3. I'm glad I made time to visit you Guido...this was so soothing and lightened my heart.  Beautiful music and wonderful sensitive pianist.  But then I love Beethoven especially his Fifth and his Pastoral which just sends goosebumps all over me.
    I enjoyed that so much..what a shame it had to end so abruptly.  
    Many many thanks for this lovely interlude from all the hustle, noise and bustle.
