Competition Edition: Gilles Vonsattel performs Farrenc

Today we'll hear from 2009 Honens Laureate Gilles Vonsattel. In this episode, Gilles performs Louise Farrenc’s Air russe Varié Op. 17.  Robert Schumann and Felix Mendelssohn could be counted among Farrenc's admirers and for good reason; Farrenc wrote in an imaginative and knowledgeable international style, prizing transparency and clear forms. Enjoy!
