Filmed live in Tokyo’s legendary Suntory Hall in April 2024, Daniil Trifonov presents a thrilling recital culminating in one of the great challenges of the piano repertoire, Beethoven’s mighty “Hammerklavier” Sonata of 1818 – a revolutionary work that at the time broke all the rules for the length and technical demands of a piano sonata. To complete the programme, the pianist performs a suite by French Baroque master Jean-Philippe Rameau, one of Mozart’s best-loved piano sonatas, plus the virtuosic Variations sérieuses, Op. 54, composed by Felix Mendelssohn in 1842 in response to the “brilliant” variations that were so prevalent at the time.
