Overview

Hailed by BBC Music Magazine for his ‘characterful, sensitive and technically dazzling’ artistry, Boris Giltburg continues his Beethoven cycle at Wigmore Hall with a programme that blends pieces from the composer’s early years in Vienna with two experimental works, the concise Op. 49 No. 2 and the heartfelt Piano Sonata No. 26 in E flat ‘Les Adieux’, most likely inspired by the enforced departure of Beethoven’s patron, Archduke Rudolph, while Vienna was besieged by Napoleon’s forces in 1809.
