Hi Rob - a few suggestions from our team are: Jayson Gillham playing Schubert Piano Sonata: ab.co/2WiWm7g 2.This album of Schubert by Australian pianist Tessa Birnie: ab.co/2PnA030 And any recordings by Paul Lewis or Elisabeth Leonskaja.
@ABCClassic woops! I think someone has upload the wrong audio! This is not WASO at PCH, this is Hamer Hall in Melbourne... abc.net.au/classic/programs/…

Hi ABC Classic - just checking if all broadcasts have a maximum of 2.5hrs? This WASO "Side by Side with ANAM" one cuts out (mid performance) just the same as the WASO: Javier Perianes plays Beethoven" after 150mins. I have thoroughly enjoyed them. But they end so abruptly? =)

Hi David - thanks for pointing out these errors in audio on the website. We're looking at fixing up these concerts and they should have the ends on them later in the week.

Thank you for playing music by the French woman whose opera was performed at the Paris Opera. Could we hear more about her? Including her name, which I did not catch.😊🎼🎵🎶🎻💖

When Paderewski came to Australia in 1904, this Pleyel piano was brought from Paris for him to perform on. This Australian master craftsman has brought the instrument back to life. ab.co/2JqW6Oh

@ABCClassic Really, Alice, I thought that music had to breathe? The Rach Prelude 23/5 is not a sprint. BTW Does anyone read these tweets? Knock once for Yes, twice for No.
