Alexander Malikov
This week, we've been getting to know the newest PT Young Artist-in-Residence, Alexander Malikov. He's been in the studios every day this week. In today's show, he talks about the advantages and disadvantages of working on the fortepiano, the 18th-century ancestor of the modern piano. And he plays a sonata by Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach.
