The Appassionata

The Appassionata, or "The Passion," as it is translated in English, was composed and performed by, predominately, the most famous and talented 18th and 19th Century composers of that era. He was the sole musical figure in the time which is historically known as the transition period between the Classical and Romantic eras.

This approximately 28 minute DVD concentrates the listener on the presentation of the piece in its entirety as interpreted and played by the talented and acclaimed Argentine/Israeli pianist and composer, Mr. Daniel Barenbohim.
