Check out a few of my favorite performances:

Also known as the “Appassionata” Étude, Liszt’s 10th Transcendental Étude is a dazzling tour de force filled with overlapping hands and treacherous octaves.

Beethoven’s penultimate Sonata was my favorite piece of music for a long time—it plays almost like program music, sinking to the deepest grief before rising in exuberant triumph.

Ondine is one of the most captivating and evocative works in the literature. When I hear it, I envision the moonlight dancing on the waves.
