Is classical music always calm and scholarly? To answer this question, there have been many examples of passion in history such as Wagner's Die Walkure, Rossini's William Tell Ouverture, or Vivaldi's Summer, etc., so much so that these works have broken the boundaries of the music genre and gone straight into our daily lives. Urging rhythm is perhaps the common feature of works in this group, in the treasure trove of classical music there are countless works representing other emotional nuances. And in the history of the piano sonata, Beethoven's sonata No. 29 Opus 106 in G major is a work that represents grandeur.

"Hammerklavier" is the nickname for the most massive of Beethoven's 32 piano sonatas, and will also be the name of the eighth program in the "Journey of Endless Creativity" concert series. Normally, the name of a famous masterpiece is usually some kind of breakthrough noun, but for Hammerklavier, the literal meaning translates to "piano". This is a large sonata on the scale of a symphony, which has left respect for posterity. If we accidentally ask how far the Classical sonata has evolved, the Sonata Op. 106 is certainly Beethoven's greatest mark in this important musical form. Together with the sonata on a smaller scale than No. 19 (Op. 49 No. 1), Hammerklavier promises to bring a harmonious concert to classical music lovers.
