Gneixendorf Music – A Winter Journey

Gneixendorf Music – A Winter Journey is a 2019 piano concerto by Brett Dean to be performed on both an upright piano with the half-blow pedal activated and a grand piano. As with Dean's previous compositions Pastoral Symphony and Testament, it is inspired by Ludwig van Beethoven, specifically his stay in a farmhouse in Gneixendorf late in his life, where he revised his Symphony No. 9 and completed his String Quartet No. 16.

Reception
Nicholas Ringskog Ferrada-Noli from Dagens Nyheter summed up the work as a nice and creative comment on Beethoven's final piano concerto, noting that while representing a physically weakened Beethoven the "mostly energetic and intense" music conveyed "Beethoven's inner life, turbulent until the end". ==References==
