Schwetzingen Festival (2/4)

Award-winning German pianist Fabian Muller performs works by Brahms and Ives.

Works by Brahms and Ives from award-winning German pianist Fabian Muller.

Recorded at last year's Schwetzingen Festival in southern Germany, the 29-year-old virtuoso paired the burnished spirituality of late Brahms with the epic second sonata by American maverick Charles Ives. This he named after the town of Concord, Massachusetts, and inspired by some of the great writers from the state: Emerson, Hawthorne, Alcott and Thoreau.
