Album insights
Pianist Alice Sara Ott, acclaimed for her 2021 album "Echoes Of Life," has recorded a selection of Beethoven's works for her latest album. The centerpiece is Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 1, Op. 15, featuring accompaniment by the Netherlands Radio Philharmonic Orchestra under the baton of Karina Canellakis. Apple Music invited Ott and Canellakis to record this concert, propelling them and the orchestra into the spotlight in Apple Music Classical App's introductory video earlier this year. Ott then curated a series of solo pieces including "Für Elise" and the "Moonlight Sonata" to complement the concerto. Beethoven is now available digitally, with a physical release set for September 29th.
