The true value of this Viennese prodigy, a successor to the Guldah lineage, is revealed here and now.Til Ferner, whose Beethoven: Complete Piano Sonatas concert series is currently underway in Japan to great acclaim. When one thinks of Viennese Beethoven interpreters, the pianist Guld is the first name that comes to mind; however, while their styles differ greatly, Ferners brilliance and overflowing musical sensibility can truly be said to carry on a Viennese musical lineage inherited from Guld. Setting himself apart from the weighty, deeply spiritual German-style interpretation of Beethovenhis playing avoids excessive heaviness, is at times lighthearted, at times wry, or brilliantsurprising listeners with his artistry. Please enjoy these two concertos to the fullest, accompanied by the exquisite playing of the Montreal Symphony Orchestra conducted by Kent Nagano.Universal Music / IMS
