Boris Giltburg plays Beethoven’s Pathétique

As well as streaming lunchtime performances from his home (see his Facebook page), Boris Giltburg is still occasionally releasing filmed performances from his ongoing project to play all 32 sonatas in Beethoven’s 250th anniversary year. The latest is this terrific performance of the Pathétique, the 8th sonata. The previous seven, along with Giltburg’s always interesting introductory descriptions, can be found here. This is such life-affirming playing for these troubled times.
