JOHN O’CONOR, PIANO

Irishman John O’Conor has played Beethoven all his life and gives us more at this morning concert.  The pianist took the world by storm in the 1980’s, recording all 32 Beethoven sonatas for Telarc, a set that is still treasured by many.  A student of legendary Wilhelm Kempff, his rendering of this composer is faithful and true, and remains in one’s memory.
