When Ludwig van Beethoven published the 29th of his 32 piano sonatas, nicknamed “the Hammerklavier,” he is said to have quipped to his publisher in 1819 that the work would keep pianists busy for the next 50 years — and it’s still keeping pianists busy. Pianist Hui-Chuan Chen’s program, Beethoven Reimagined, features not only the massive and technically challenging Hammerklavier sonata, but also a new commissioned work by composer Daniel Pesca, Impromptu #2 (after Beethoven), directly inspired by Beethoven’s masterpiece.
