- Details
- Genre: Classical
- Description: This enthralling recital by the young American pianist George LI, silver medallist at the 2015 International Tchaikovsky Competition, marks his recording debut and launches a new relationship with Warner Classics. Captured at a live performance in the Mariinsky Concert Hall in St Petersburg, it presents a dramatically conceived programme of works by Haydn, Chopin, Rachmaninov and Liszt a descent into deep darkness; re-emergence into the light, and a concluding, boisterous celebration. LI, now 21 years old, was born in Boston to music-loving parents who came to the USA from China. He started taking part in music competitions as a child and experienced something of an epiphany when, as a young teenager, he performed a Beethoven concerto with orchestra. As he told Pianist magazine InchAll of a sudden I felt like I had entered a different world... It was a unique and amazing experience for the first time I was feeling music a lot more emotionally, rather than just remembering the right notes and where to come in. Afterwards people were coming up to me and saying that listening to me had changed their lives. I was shocked. I didn't know before that music had that kind of power. After that, I just wanted to be able to find that feeling again.Inch Album Tracks 1. Piano Sonata in B minor, Hob. XVI 32 I. Allegro Moderato 2. Piano Sonata in B minor, Hob. XVI 32 II. Menuetto 3.
