SUGGESTIONS FROM OUR PRESENTERS
Jonathan Biss
Listen: Beethoven Fantasy, op. 77, Serkin Recording - YouTube
Listen: Beethoven Fantasy, op. 77, Schnabel Recording - YouTube
"The Serkin and Schnabel recordings are both excellent. Probably as close to Beethoven's actual improvisations as
anything we have on paper."

Listen: Semi-Improvised movement based on Beethoven Sonata No. 8 Adagio Cantabile movement, by Elkies:
