Hailed for music-making of tremendous emotional power, depth and sensitivity, Richard Goode is acknowledged as one of the leading interpreters of Beethoven and Mozart performing today. He probes the inner reaches of works by any composer, infusing every measure with the utmost expressivity, making his musicianship an exciting combination of grandness and humility, boldness, and depth. “A performance of staggering virtuosity and musical insight.” The Times (London)
