[PERFORMANCE INTRODUCTION]
This performance is a program that explores the flow and evolution of sonata form through the sonatas of Scarlatti, Haydn, and Beethoven. From the experimental and delicate keyboard music of the late Baroque period, through the balance and structural beauty of Classicism, to the expanded expressiveness and depth achieved by Beethoven, the concert unfolds this journey as a single narrative.
Through the works of three composers representative of each era, audiences can naturally experience how musical language and emotional expression have changed and developed, while the program aims to convey the artistic value and diversity of the piano sonata in a multidimensional way.
'A Journey Through Sonata' will be a stage that follows the changing language of music throughout the passage of time, offering the audience a profound listening experience and emotional resonance.
