Steven Osborne performs Beethoven's final two piano sonatas in Glasgow.

Steven Osborne (piano) performs at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland in Glasgow. Beethoven: Piano Sonatas Nos 31 and 32. Schubert: Moment musical No 2, Op 94.

Jamie MacDougall presents the third lunchtime recital this week with some of Scotland's finest performers. Today the renowned pianist Steven Osborne performs Beethoven's final two piano sonatas from the Stevenson hall of the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland. These final two works excel beyond the established sonata form as Beethoven masterfully crafts fugues and variations through musical and emotional extremes. Between these two iconic works, Steven Osborne plays the second of Schubert's Moment Musicaux Op 94.

Beethoven: Piano Sonata No. 31 in A-flat major, Op. 110
Schubert: Moments Musicaux No. 2 in A-Flat Major Op. 94
Beethoven: Piano Sonata No. 32 in C minor, Op. 111
