The Spirit of Beethoven’s Ninth in the Hands of Ballista and Canino

by Benedetta Saglietti

Listening to Ballista – Canino, one gets the impression that their duo is a miniature orchestra, whether they’re playing Stravinsky or Beethoven.

Years ago, when I heard them for the first time, I was truly struck by love: from then on, it‘s become a monthly habit for me to listen to Beethoven’s Sacred Heart and Ninth Symphony in the original versions or in the transcriptions performed by the duo.
