SOMM Recordings announces Volume 3 of the Tessa Uys and Ben Schoeman Piano Duo's ground-breaking series exploring Franz Xaver Scharwenka's arrangements of Beethoven Symphonies. A composer of no mean stature in his own right, Scharwenka's transcriptions were once widely admired, his treatments of Beethoven's symphonies a high-watermark of the genre. Volume 3 couples perhaps the least known of Beethoven's nine symphonies, No.2 in D major, and the extraordinary scale and innovation of No.7 in A major. As Robert Matthew-Walker points out in his informative booklet notes, perhaps the most astonishing aspect of the Second Symphony, composed during a period of crippling self-doubt and encroaching deafness, is that it is "so positive and full of life, tingling with vitality and energy". Of the Seventh Symphony, he writes, "Beethoven poses further challenges to his interpreters - technical as well as musical... Nothing like this had ever been expressed in music before." Born in Cape Town and a Royal Academy of Music Associate, Tessa Uys has an impressive reputation as a concert and broadcasting performer, appearing at major venues around the world. Her multi-prize-winning South African compatriot Ben Schoeman has a busy international profile and is currently a senior lecturer in piano and musicology at the University of Pretoria. First playing as a London-based Duo in 2010, their admired explorations of Scharwenka's four-hand Beethoven transcriptions on the concert platform began in 2015.
