這是很讓我期待的一場鋼琴獨奏會，由當代貝多芬專家Igor Levit彈奏貝多芬的鋼琴奏鳴曲。
之前有聽過他許多錄音，包括2019年出版的貝多芬鋼琴奏鳴曲全集，讓我聽到了很多嶄新的詮釋方式，有別於老派激情壯烈的貝多芬，Igor Levit的演奏方式處處充滿生機，每次聽都有很多收穫。
第一個會注意到的就是他的節奏感，讓人很有共鳴，再平淡古板的樂段，都有一股向前推進的動力，可以感覺到旋律線是不斷延續下去，當一個緩慢鋪陳的片段過後，會接上快速激情的音群，讓我體驗到動態變化不只是音量大小，也能從整體的速度分配去表現。
這種躍動感在第8號鋼琴奏鳴曲《悲愴》、第21號鋼琴奏鳴曲《華德斯坦》體現的尤其出眾，例如《華德斯坦》奏鳴曲以不斷敲擊的緊湊低音開頭，呈現出令人難以置信的能量感和張力，讓聽者有強烈的期待接下來會如何發展，右手旋律彷彿清晨中的鳥叫，輕快充滿朝氣，猶如黎明之中陽光灑落大地、萬物甦醒之景象。接著進入第二主題，悠閒安逸，像是微風輕拂，美麗而自然。其中調性、力度不斷變化，主題非常豐富精彩，引人入勝。
你可以在Igor Levit的演奏中聽到喜悅、幸福、激動的心情，不知不覺就被感染了這種氣氛，使聽者如沐春風。
貝多芬之所以偉大是因為他從不停滯不前，是一位真正自由的作曲家，總是為他的音樂設計新的架構，一次又一次地以創新的方式實現它，在這幾首經典的鋼琴奏鳴曲中，Igor Levit以饒富深意的歌唱性，演繹貝多芬在音樂裡嵌入的堅忍與永恆。
