Ludwig van Beethoven - Favorite Piano Music - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Beethoven's three most famous sonatas have received hundreds of recordings. Why another, especially from a company like Divine Art which usually avoids duplicating repertoire? Because we believe that each piece of music demands a performance tailored to the composition, and that recently, every recording of a major work seems to sound the same. Beethoven's sonatas are fiery, storm-filled works which require playing not only of consummate skill but also total passion and commitment. They receive that here, together with a piano of individual character, with a InchvisceralInch quality (to quote Goldstone), and ideal for this music. But this CD contains two special tracks We offer the world premiere recording of Moscheles' arrangement of the Overture to InchFidelioInch. And also, two alternative versions of the first movement of the InchPathetiqueInch Sonata, one incorporating Goldstone's belief regarding the correct execution of the exposition repeat. We could not pack any more onto a disc!
