Posterity has venerated Ludwig van Beethoven with an intensity that had previously been reserved only for saints, prophets, or saviors. For that reason his last works have been regarded as the final word on the edge of the Great Beyond—whether his Ninth Symphony or the last three piano sonatas, especially the final one, Op. 111 in C minor: “The sonata in general, as a species, as a traditional art-form: it itself was here at an end, brought to its end,” wrote Thomas Mann in his novel “Doktor Faustus.” “It had fulfilled its destiny, reached its goal, beyond which it could not go, it canceled and resolved itself, it bade its farewell.” Yet as often as music in Europe has been thought to have died out, it has arisen from the dead. This is also an insight that the Pollini Perspectives series brings us through a brand-new score by Sicilian composer Salvatore Sciarrino.
