Interview with Leif Ove Andsnes
on: November 12, 2015, 06:26:26 PM
Hi Everyone,

Leif Ove Andsnes will be performing a solo recital in San Francisco next week, and I had the chance to speak with him about a number of things. He talks about why he's never recorded Medtner, Chopin (he did not follow the competition last month), and pop music.

PS: I've moved our interviews to another site, as I've received many complaints about the advertisements on Examiner.com. There are no pop-ups here :)
