Hannah French introduces a performance by pianist Elisabeth Leonskaja of Mozart's spirited Sonata in C, K330, and Beethoven's sublime final Sonata No 32 in C minor, Op 111.

Hannah French presents one of the legendary pianists of our time, Elisabeth Leonskaja, performing live from Wigmore Hall in London. Elisabeth Leonskaja performs Mozart's sprited Sonata in C major, which he wrote at the age of 27, alongside Beethoven's sublime final Sonata in C minor, Op.111.
