“This series of recordings from more than a century ago is remarkable: actual performances recorded on
mechanical reproducing pianos, preserved on piano rolls, and re-presented on a new concert grand, with
digital sound. And this Polish-American pianist was one of the greatest virtuosi of his age, as these pieces of
Liszt, Chopin, and Schumann testify.” The Independent, 23rd February 2008 Album of the week | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

| Beethoven - Piano Sonatas Nos. 1-3
Composed in 1793-95, just after he went to Vienna and while he was still chiefly making his name as a pianist, Beethoven’s op.2 needs no apology for coming first in the series of 32: in scope, variety and dramatic power, these sonatas are already authentically Beethovenian – bold, brilliantly virtuosic and, in the slow movements, often profoundly expressive works which, deservedly, have always been popular among pianists and music lovers | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

| |  | Beethoven - Piano Sonatas Volume 2
Angela Hewitt is widely acknowledged as one of the great pianists of the age. Gramophone Artist of the Year in 2006 and
the recent subject of a week-long artist focus on BBC Radio 3, her frenetic concert schedule and expanding discography
bear testimony to her extraordinary talent and energy.
Hewitt’s legion of fans will be delighted at this eagerly awaited second volume of Beethoven sonatas. Her first release
in this series was fulsomely praised for its ‘clarity, intelligence and elegance’ … ‘fusing poetry and passion’,
and all these trademark qualities of her playing are fully present in this second disc.
Angela presents three very different works here, written within a period of seven years: the enchanting ‘Pastoral’ Sonata
Op 28, the monumental ‘Pathétique’ Op 13 and the dazzling early masterpiece Op 2 No 3. Her interpretations are
vividly personal, yet the voice of the composer speaks clearly throughout. | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

| |  | Beethoven - Piano Sonatas (Volume 1)
“Surprisingly András Schiff has resisted the temptation to embark on a complete recording of Beethoven’s Piano Sonatas until now… His prime aim seems to have been to revisit music that is all too often taken for granted and so he sets out to re-emphasise the revolutionary nature of Beethoven’s writing… Throughout this finely recorded set, Schiff highlights plenty of details that tend to be bypassed by other artists, and for this reason his performances deserve an enthusiastic recommendation.” - Erik Levi, BBC Music Magazine ***** | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |
