In the 1950s and early 1960s, Leon Fleisher was one of the most prominent pianists in the world. While preparing for a world tour with the Cleveland orchestra, the fingers on his right hand began to involuntarily curl and within a year, he could not even play the simplest music with his right hand. Now, after more than 30 years, thanks to Botox injections into his wrist, the legendary pianist is able to perform again, and this disc features his first recital since the 1960s.Bach, Johann Sebastian : Herz und Mund und Tat und Leben, BWV 147 Jesu bleibet meine Freude Jesu, joy of man's desiringBach, Johann Sebastian : Was mir behagt, ist nur die muntre Jagd!, BWV 208 Hunt Cantata Schafe können sicher weidenScarlatti, Domenico : Sonata for Harpsichord in E major, K 380/L 23Frédéric Chopin (1810 - 1849) : Mazurkas (3) for Piano, B 145/Op. 50 no 3 in C sharp minorFrédéric Chopin (1810 - 1849) : Nocturnes (2) for Piano, Op. 27 no 2 in D flat major, B 96Debussy, Claude : Suite bergamasque 3rd movement, Clair de LuneSchubert, Franz : Sonata for Piano in B flat major, D 960 Only $11.98 - Click here to buy now! |
