More Info:

This is the debut recording by pianist Higashitsuji Haruka. Confronting Beethoven's famously difficult masterpiece from his later years head-on, he delivers a dignified performance with a calmness and boldness that is hard to believe for a newcomer. Listeners will be touched by his powerful and compelling performance. The instrument used is a vintage Steinway (CD135) made in 1925. The natural one-point recording, recorded in the intimate space of the Biwako Hall Small Hall, is also appealing.[Contents]Beethoven: 33 Variations on a Waltz Theme by Diabelli Op.1201.
