Daniel Barenboim | 5 Minutes On... Chopin - Ballade No.1 (G minor)

On a Chopin favorite, the Ballade No. 1 in g minor...

Barenboim was inspired to create a new piano after playing Franz Liszt’s restored grand piano during a trip to Siena in September 2011. Struck by the vital differences in sound of an instrument constructed with straight, parallel strings rather than the diagonal crossed ones of a contemporary instrument, he set out to create a brand new instrument that combines the best of the old and the new and offers a real alternative for pianists and music-lovers in the 21st century.
