Many pianists record the same works on more than one occasion, which naturally presents the opportunity to compare their interpretations.
That's precisely what this week's episode of the ASCAP Deems Taylor/Virgil Thomson Award winning program Between the Keys is about. Host Jed Distler invites fellow pianist Ben Laude to join him in evaluating how interpretations evolve over time, featuring recordings by Carlo Grante, Angela Hewitt, Jorge Bolet, Maurizio Pollini, Stephen Kovacevich, Ruth Slenczynska, Sergei Rachmaninov, Rudolf Firkusny and Juana Zayas.
Tune in to Between the Keys this Tuesday night at 10, with the rebroadcast on Wednesday at noon, exclusively on The Classical Network and WWFM.org.
