Featured Recording
Valentina Lisitsa, one of the incredibly gifted pianists of our time, has been
kind and provided a recording of Beethoven's Für Elise to help us spread music.
Lisitsa was born in Ukraine but moved to the United States in 1991 after winning
a duo-piano competition with her partner Alexei Kuznetsoff. She has since
established a reputation as a concert pianist with several recordings and
DVD releases showing her sense of music and serene technique. You can download
the free recording of Für Elise below, and we have also provided links to some
of Valentina Lisitsa's other projects as well as her official web site.
Note: You are encouraged to send us your comments about this exclusive
recording to editors@forelise.com. The recording is in the MP3
format and should be playable on most computers.
We hope you enjoy it!
