Heather Taves, piano: Beethoven Sonata Journey

UPEI’s Department of Music kicks off their Winter concert series with a piano recital featuring Heather Taves, whose Beethoven Sonata Journey is remarkable and moving. First and foremost, she is a stunning pianist, bringing her formidable technique to these great works. But she is also a brilliant thinker, and in her spoken introductions to each sonata, she illuminates the complex relationships that connect Beethoven and his world, the instrument, the audience and its world, and Heather herself.
