Piano
Fun with Ludwig
Ludwig van Beethoven had the ability to create an entire musical
universe from the most unassuming and minuscule motif. No classical
composer worked more consciously with rhythm than Beethoven:
his unmistakable “drive” can be felt in every bar!
Here familiar “Beethoven themes” are merged, liberated, shuffled,
filtered and recombined with jazz harmonies, standard styles and
rhythms. Jean Kleeb’s arrangements sometimes closely follow the
original, at other times they comment on or recall Beethoven’s music
from afar.
