The young South African Kristian Bezuidenhout is the most famous fortepiano player of the present. With the members of the Balthasar Neumann Orchestra, he plays the music of the early Romantic period - including Schubert's famous Trout Quintet. Music for friends, which easily loses its mystery on a representative Steinway. Bezuidenhout, however, plays "the fortepiano with the inner attitude of an expressive musician in the Romantic tradition..." (concerti). It is a tradition that is being re-explored by young musicians today - based on sources and beyond a naive "I feel, therefore I play".
