Gary Goldschneider (born 22 May 1939) is a writer, pianist and composer. Goldschneider has performed several "marathon" piano pieces, such as playing all 32 of Beethoven's sonatas in one sitting.[1][2] On another occasion in Nevada City, California, in 1984, he performed all of Mozart's sonatas in one sitting, only taking three breaks to consume water.[3] This took approximately six hours.[3]

Collaborations

Goldschneider has collaborated with W.P Julian Clef, another "marathon" pianist, during Clef's piano music tour in 2003.[4] Clef has also studied under Goldschneider.[5]
