Georg Friedrich Schenck / Klavierabend

• Classical Music

Georg Friedrich Schenck is best known for his outstanding CD recordings: His recording of Beethoven’s immensely difficult Hammerklavier Sonata continues to set standards today. The former master student of the legendary pianist André Watts is himself a long-standing professor of piano. His master students include piano virtuosos such as Evgeni Bozhanov, Sukyeon Kim, Georgijs Osokins and Hyelim Kim. For his piano recital in the Elbphilharmonie’s Small Hall, Schenck has chosen among other works Beethoven’s »Appassionata« sonata – one of the most popular sonatas in piano literature.
