Info for Chopin: Piano Works (Live)
The Aevea Piano Prize (APP) is an innovative International Piano & Chamber Music Competition, founded by the Associazione Culturale Aevea and supported by OnClassical. The purpose of the competition is to promote selected participants through relevant performance opportunities and worldwide distribution of their hi-fi recordings.
The competition takes place at the prestigious 'Sala Maffeiana' in Verona, nearby the Arena. This hall was the oldes Music Academy in Europe, and it is also noted for having hosted performances of 13-year-old Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in 1770.
The live performances, here recorded as HD studiomaster files, took place during the second Aevea Piano Prize (November 2020) and were recorded by producer and engineer Alessandro Simonetto by using 8 (eight) Bru¨el & Kjaeer and Neumann microphones (onclassical.com/app/). These recordings are part of the Aevea prize, and their sale are important in order to support future editions of the competition.
