This is not a show to see if you're looking for just another piano recital,...or if you don't like classical music,...or if you've never heard of Beethoven. EVERYone else will absolutely love it, not just for the music, but also for the artistry and talent that is Hershey Felder. Amazing performer and clearly also an outstanding playwright. You will leave the theatre wanting to know more about other composers, and promising yourself you won't miss any chance you have to see one of Monsieur Felder's other shows. He is a treasure.

This was as creatively done as his Chopin performance. The lighting and sound really enhanced his acting and playing. I was very glad to hear that he will be doing Bernstein next year.

Mr. Felder is an incredible performer. Riveting, haunting piece of work with excellent supporting video backdrop and accompaniment. Throughly enjoyed the event. Can't wait to see his next historic musician come to life. :)

Description

Hershey Felder's Beethoven, As I Knew Him is a dramatization of a little known true story as told in 1870, forty-three years after Beethoven's passing, by the person who spent a good part of the maestro's last two years by his side. With a narrative spanning several generations, Hershey Felder combines his acting, piano and musical analytical skills to bring to life the character of Ludwig van Beethoven as he existed through the eyes of one who knew him well. Featuring some of the composer's most famous works, including The Moonlight Sonata, The Pathetique Sonata, selections from Beethoven's Symphonies Nos. 5 and 9, the Grosse Fugue, as well as a movement of Beethoven's great Emperor Concerto, Beethoven, As I Knew Him is a journey through time that will bring audiences closer to the genius of the maestro Ludwig van Beethoven himself.
