Par KLEEB JEAN. Ludwig van Beethoven had the ability to create an entire musical universe from the most unassuming and minuscule motif. No classical composer worked more consciously with rhythm than Beethoven: his unmistakable 'drive' can be felt in every bar!

Jean Kleeb's arrangements sometimes closely follow the original, at other times they comment on or recall Beethoven's music from afar./ Recueil / Piano
