FEATURED PERFORMANCE:

Professor William Kinderman

(University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign)

Saturday, Feb. 4, 2012 7:30pm

William Kinderman has been described by Alfred Brendel as a "very rare bird" on account of his ability to combine scholarship and performance. Kinderman's books on music include Beethoven's Diabelli Variations, Artaria 195: Beethoven's Sketchbook for the Missa solemnis and the Piano Sonata in E Major, Opus 109 (3 vols.), The String Quartets of Beethoven, Mozart's Piano Music, and the comprehensive study Beethoven (new expanded edition, 2009). As pianist he has recorded Beethoven's Diabelli Variations and last sonatas for Hyperion/Helios Records; his double CD of the Diabelli Variations and recording of the last sonatas is currently available through Arietta Records. In March 2010 Kinderman received a Research Prize for lifetime achievement from the Humboldt Foundation. He is Professor at the University of Illinois and has taught as DAAD Guest Professor at the University of Munich. His book The Creative Process in Music from Mozart to Kurtág will appear with the University of Illinois Press in 2012 later this year; also forthcoming in 2013 is a book on Wagner's Parsifal with Oxford University Press. Kinderman has taken part in workshops and symposia with noted pianists, including Brendel and András Schiff.
