Concerto for the Left Hand

Overview

A journey into the mind of concert pianist Paul Wittgenstein, whose right arm was amputated during WWI. Inspired by the biography of Austrian concert pianist Paul Wittgenstein, Concerto takes readers through a dreamlike and poetic universe deep into the mind of the tortured, melancholy, complex man upon whom only music seems to have a calming effect. Wounded during the First World War, Paul Wittgenstein had his right arm amputated but nevertheless pursued his dream to be a successful concert pianist. The fortune his father left him allowed Wittgenstein to commission works playable with only the left hand from the greatest composers of the day--which is how the legendary pianist Maurice Ravel, at Wittgenstein's request, came to compose his famous Concerto for the Left Hand.
