We welcome back composer/conductor Rob Kapilow for another installment of his “What Makes It Great” series. Pianist Michael Brown joins him to delve into Beethoven’s Piano Sonata No. 8 in C Minor, Op. 13, “Pathétique.” During this livestream program, Kapilow will deconstruct, slow down, and reassemble this Beethoven masterwork, one of Beethoven’s most popular sonatas, followed by a complete performance by Michael Brown and a Q&A session with both artists (and you!).
