This installment of the Classic Archive series captures renowned American pianist Murray Perahia at one with his art form, interpreting the works of Ludwig van Beethoven with unrivaled virtuosity and sensitivity. At once playful and disciplined, Perahia's technique evokes the mastery of a poetic genius who strives to blend the lyric and the epic, much like Beethoven united classic and romantic styles in his compositions.
