Leif Ove Andsnes Quotes

�I played this amazing work when I was 17 in my debut recital in Norway. I didn�t understand much about the layers of the music then, but I was fascinated by it nonetheless. It is one of Beethoven�s great late sonatas, and I think I can bring so much more to it now. Performing it is something I�ve been wanting to do for a long while. I�ve done so much Schubert in past seasons, and I�d like to do late Beethoven now.� 
Leif Ove Andsnes

�My ongoing relationship with the Norwegian Chamber Orchestra is very important to me. We do one or two projects a year and we look forward to every concert together. We performed at Mostly Mozart a few years ago and have in the meantime done both European and Asian tours. I�m very happy that my journey with Mozart is with them. We�re looking very long term at Mozart�s wonderful concertos and plan to perform them � and hopefully record them � as often as possible.�
