The Early Music Show Period Piano
Episode 2 of 2

Lucie Skeaping charts the development of the piano, including the early 19th century instruments for which Beethoven and Haydn wrote - precursors of the modern concert piano.

As part of the Piano Season on the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ, Lucie Skeaping presents the second of two programmes about the development of the piano during the eighteenth century.

Lucie continues her survey of the development of the period piano, ending in the early nineteenth century with instruments for which Beethoven and Haydn wrote music which were recognisable precursors of the modern concert grand piano.

With contributions from Steven Devine Professor of Fortepiano at Trinity College of Music, and Robert Levin.
