Alexander Weimann Inaugurates EMV’s Graf Fortepiano with Mozart, Schubert & Beethoven | Digital Concert Hall
EMV highlights Alexander Weimann, one of the most sought-after ensemble directors, soloists, keyboardists and chamber music partners of his generation, as he inaugurates the newest acquisition of our instrument collection: a fortepiano modelled on an 1819 instrument by Conrad Graf (1782-1851), built by the world-famous Paul McNulty. Graf did much of his most important work during the short life of Franz Schubert, and although he rose to prominence after Mozart and Haydn had died, he was continuing the tradition of Viennese fortepianos with which they were familiar.
