Peder Mønsted: Winter Day in Charlottenlund Forest

Of the piece, Lang Lang says: “For me it is very romantic, and light, like a feather. It has to come from nowhere and it has to touch people. It can’t just be treated as background music. I’ve tried to play the piece as the masterpiece that it is, and I hope that children who…

Arthur Rubinstein: Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 3 in C Minor

“Childe Hassam posed a young model at a mahogany table with two vases of Maréchal Niel roses, a flower named for Napoléon III’s secretary of war.

The two…

Fazil Say: Le Coucou (Daquin)

“…Swiss author Jacques Chessex wrote, “Here, a kind of unbelievable meditation on the sublimation of things occurs and develops into fullness, as the space within the painting brings forth a delightful, sweet spectacle. While no human figure appears in it, the painting coalesces into a kind of highly concentrated power that connects in our minds…

Jun Luke Foster: Sonata in A minor K310 (Mozart)

“The present pastel is Redon’s beautiful rendering of the Cain and Abel story. Christian imagery rarely appeared in his early work. However, during the 1890s Redon responded to the Catholic revival that emerged in France during the previous decade and remained a powerful force in the nation’s cultural life until the First World War…Biblical imagery…

Krystian Zimerman: Piano Concerto No. 5 (Beethoven)

“The boldly checked taffeta skirt in the painting echoes one of Miller’s early successes in the genre—Chinese Statuette, ca. 1909-1910 (The Saint Louis Art Museum, Saint Louis, Missouri), a Sargentesque portrait of his wife clad in the same skirt (rendered slightly darker). The repeated use of this skirt, which appears in several other paintings over…

William Nicholson : Double Anemones (1921)

“Here Nicholson employs an almost square format, which is unusual for him, and the rich, dark background of his pre-war still lifes makes a return. The scarlet, purple, pink and white anemones in a simple white mug with painted decoration are standing on a thin white cloth, partially covering a plain wooden table. Silver and…

Mitsuko Uchida: Mozart’s Piano Concerto No. 25

“Dating from the period in which Léon de Smet was living in an artists’ commune in Saint-Martens-Latem, in his native Belgium, the present painting displays the influence of French developments in Impressionist and Neo-Impressionist thought on the artist’s work…Particularly pertinent to this canvas is the Impressionist fascination with shadow and half-shadow; their infinite nuances of…
