Jonathan Biss
Acerca de este título
The American pianist Jonathan Biss is known to audiences throughout the world for his artistry, musical intelligence and deeply felt interpretations. What is less known until now is that Jonathan Biss writes about music in a most compelling and engaging way. For anyone who has ever enjoyed a Beethoven concert or a Beethoven recording or one of the many films about Beethoven, this audiobook is an inspiring listening experience. For those of you who have heard Beethoven in concert or listened to a Beethoven recording, Jonathan Biss takes you behind the scenes of those performances. If your musical interests are much broader than Beethoven or if your interests focus on the creative process , this will fully engage you.
“On April 24th, 2007, Beethoven’s Sonata Opus 109 made me lose my mind.” So Jonathan Biss opens this book. He goes on to describe the complex and by no means all positive impact of the technology of the recording process on the experience of performing and listening to music. He also describes the legacy of generations of teachers. You are there when Leon Fleisher teaches Jonathan Biss just as Artur Schnabel taught Leon Fleisher before him. You experience the growth of a talented young musician as he becomes a fully mature artist. Most compelling of all, Jonathan Biss creates an almost spiritual introduction to the making and experiencing of music. He has, in effect, invited the reader into the world of the composer and the performer.
Jonathan Biss includes an annotated audio guide to deepen the experience of anyone who enjoys listening to classical music.
It is an unforgettable experience.
Jonathan Biss has recently begun a nine year project of recording all 32 Beethoven piano sonatas.

Renowned pianist Jonathan Biss performs from a place within himself where skill, mind, and heart thrive in perfect synchronicity. A dedicated fan of the masters, Biss has undertaken the recording of Beethoven’s full suite of piano sonatas. A natural teacher, Biss is capable of describing beautifully what music is meant to do to player and to audience. In Beethoven’s Shadow Biss describes his love of and voyage into the world of music, and focuses especially on his ghost-mentor, Beethoven. His explanation of Beethoven’s mission and divine successes resound with love. Biss cares about what the composers he loves meant to achieve with each piece. To play is to honor. Narrator Jeff Woodman’s warm voice celebrates this sincere work.
