Beethoven: Piano Sonata No. 10 in G major, Op. 14 No. 2

“could be a Beethoven piano-sonata cycle that challenges the very notion of playing this music on modern instruments, a stylistic paradigm shift.” (Fanfare)

“These were recognised as classic performances virtually from their first appearance. They're characterised not only by the intense expressiveness of Richter's playing, but also by very careful balances of orchestral texture which hitherto hadn't been much apparent in recordings of these works.
Throughout, the emphasis is on poetic insight, dramatic impact; these interpretations have in these and other regards exerted a considerable influence. Yet even if sensitive readings of Liszt's concertos are now less rare, this in no way weakens the impression made by Richter's and Kondrashin's. In short, these are among the great Liszt recordings.” Gramophone Classical Music Guide, 2010

"Though Jandó's readings may not have the individuality of a Brendel or a Barenboim, they have a concentration and freshness which, never distracting you from Beethoven, is equally satisfying. They also have fuller, more faithful sound." THE GUARDIAN - 2 August 1990
