There are so many ways of playing music that even little differences are noticeable, but what happens when one can hear three separate generations playing the same music?
On the Piano this Sunday hear three different generations playing the evocative preludes of Frederic Chopin. Going back to a pianist active in the 19th century, Ferruccio Busoni, who was not one to be shy concerning his approach to other composers music, joins us courtesy of a 1920's piano roll, then there is the great-all-rounder, Claudio Arrau and his beautiful touch as recorded by Philips and to bring us one of today's generation, the young French-Canadian pianist Jean-Francois Latour. All are playing the memorable preludes of Chopin and be warned, the differences are not subtle.
Hear part one of this Chopin-fest this Sunday afternoon at 5 on KPAC & KTXI.
