We each have our own ways of getting through this. I have been retreating to the music of Muzio Clementi, Johann Nepomuk Hummel, Jan Ladislav Dussek and Joseph Wölfl. This year is the 250th anniversary of Beethoven's birth, and we would have seen s series of concerts around the world to celebrate. But a few weeks ago the NY Times published a story on the French pianist Bavouzet, who was instead revisiting the work of Beethoven's contemporaries and colleagues. Since then, I have been enjoying the catalog of their work. It isn't the only thing I am listening to or watching, but it has been a nice backdrop to sheltering in place.
