Garrett Teoh

Instrument: Piano

Hometown: Golden Valley, Minn.

Piece: Ludwig van Beethoven — Piano Sonata No. 21 in C Major, Op. 53, Mvt. III ("Waldstein")

Why did you choose this piece?

Beethoven is one of my favorite composers. I chose this piece because it has everything in it dynamically and gives me wonderful opportunities to bring out long melodic lines. The true character and genius of the piece really comes to light when you play it paying close attention to only Beethoven's direction. It is not just a pretty song; it is an entire orchestra playing or choir singing at the same time — there is so much majesty in it.
