3 WHY THIS PROGRAM AND REPERTOIRE…?

We asked Leif Ove Andsnes why he chose this repertoire and what he was thinking about when he constructed this program:

First, this is all music I love! I try to put together programs that are contrasting, and often I like to include pieces that might not be familiar, even to music lovers. In tonight’s program, the Sibelius pieces and maybe, also, the Debussy studies, belong to that category. Sibelius is not known for his piano music, so here I am on a little bit of a mission to introduce this music to general audiences. The Beethoven sonata is new to me this season, and I have had such pleasure in learning this work which is so full of charm, humor, and vitality. Personally, Debussy and Chopin belong to the same world, although inhabiting very different tonal languages. It is a sensual sensation for my hands to play this music, so perfectly fit for the piano. And one can play with colors and phrasings endlessly. The last piece in the program, Chopin’s fourth ballade, is undoubtedly one of his great masterpieces. It’s a work made of heartbreaking melodies and harmonies, full of suffering. And one of his most complex scores — the polyphony is overwhelming, and it shows his love for Bach.

— Leif Ove Andsnes

Surprisingly, the waltz is interrupted, half-way through, by a brief passage of fast arpeggios, after which the valse triste returns. 1929 was the last year from which there is any surviving music by Sibelius (he was still working on his Eighth Symphony after that year, but the symphony was eventually destroyed).

Ludwig van Beethoven Born December 16, 1770 in Bonn, Germany Died March 26, 1827 in Vienna

UMS premiere: Adele aus der Ohe; February 26, 1890 at University Hall.
