Ludwig van Beethoven's Piano Sonata No.31 in A-flat major

For his new recordings of Beethoven, the winner of DR P2s Talentpris 2020 has been given rave reviews that suggest he is rocketing towards the international top

Gustav Piekut was born in Southern Jutland, Denmark in 1995 and at the age of six he started to play the piano. When he was just 12 years old, he made his debut with the Southern Jutland Symphony Orchestra, after which he walked off with all the nationwide youth competition prizes. His latest award is DR P2s Talentpris.

‘Piekut (…) has come up with an album which, if there is any justice in the universe, will function as a booster rocket for his ascent into international orbit’ – Thomas Michelsen, Politiken 2019
Recorded live May 18 2021.
