Following the critically acclaimed Mozart\/Jones Sonatas Fragment Completions (2021), this Beethoven album marks Podger \u0026amp; Glynn's second release together. Reading about Ludwig van Beethoven as a performer usually brings up the inevitable stories about his characteristic and idiosyncratic piano playing in Vienna. But delving further into his early years in Bonn, we read that, as a musician at the court of the Archbishop-Elector of Cologne, he was active as both organist and viola player. And when he left for Vienna in 1792 he was advised to take violin lessons with Ignaz Schuppanzigh. Beethoven's profound understanding of both the violin and the piano, and ability to combine them with astonishing invention and originality, is heard in ten sonatas. Three of which are performed on this new album.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Rachel Podger","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41742795997255,"sku":"42459484","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2976\/0132\/files\/4063827-3187553.jpg?v=1749182288","url":"https:\/\/tower.com\/products\/beethoven-podger-glynn-sonatas-for-violin-piano-super-audio-cd","provider":"Tower Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
