This album is a collection of some of the most beautiful and virtuosic music from the first-half of the 19th century from arguably the two greatest composer/performers of the period - Beethoven and Liszt. From Beethoven's Waldstein Sonata, one of his most technically challenging works, to works including Liszt's Liebestraum No. 3 and the transcription of Wagner's Tannh�user overture, this is a formidable debut. Born in Munich in 1991, Pacini began her studies at the age of ten as a pupil of Karl-Heinz K�mmerling at the Salzburg Mozarteum, where she was accepted two years later by the newly founded Institute for Highly Gifted Students. From 2007 she continued her studies in master classes given by Pavel Gililov, completing her diploma in 2011 with honours. In 2010 she became acquainted with Martha Argerich, who invited her the following year to give a recital as part of the Martha Argerich Project in Lugano, and who has since become an important figure in the young pianist's career.
