Spanning more than a century of keyboard writing, this recital illuminates the transformation of the piano sonata from its Classical foundations to the heightened expressivity of Romanticism. Mozart’s C minor Fantasia already stretches beyond formal restraint, its chromatic boldness and improvisatory freedom hinting at new emotional horizons. Beethoven’s Op.54, poised between elegance and propulsion, balances refined ornament with a toccata-like brilliance that anticipates later virtuoso traditions. Haydn’s A major sonata recalls the intimate world of the divertimento, its clarity and wit enriched by subtle rhythmic surprises. Clementi, a true pioneer of pianistic technique, expands the instrument’s expressive and dynamic range — from luminous contrasts in the F major sonata to the driven intensity of the F sharp minor work. Finally, Sinding’s B minor Sonata brings a sweeping late-Romantic breadth, its Germanic richness and restless energy closing this journey with expansive fervour. Together, these performances reveal not only stylistic change, but the piano’s growing capacity for drama, color, and emotional depth.
