| |  | Beethoven For All: The Piano Sonatas
This collection was recorded live across eight concerts at the Staatsoper unter den Linden, Berlin in June and July 2005. Beethoven’s 32 piano sonatas have been at the heart of Daniel Barenboim’s musical life since childhood and through his remarkable career, Barenboim has gained a unique understanding of Beethoven’s music. Having performed much of the composer’s solo, chamber, orchestral and operatic repertoire, Barenboim’s performances of these varied and complex works give a fascinating perspective into one of music’s greatest geniuses from one of the most gifted and complete musicians of our time. Having first performed a complete cycle of Beethoven’s piano sonatas in Tel Aviv in 1960, Barenboim has repeated the feat many times around the world, most recently at the Teatro Colón, Buenos Aires, in 2002, at the Vienna Musikverein in 2004 (when he also conducted the Palestine Youth Orchestra in its inaugural concert and played a Beethoven sonatas concert in Ramallah), at the Berlin Staatsoper in 2005, and at both La Scala, Milan, and London’s Royal Festival Hall in 2008. Barenboim says of the Beethoven piano sonatas: “This music encompasses everything that a great human being is capable of – in thought, in feeling, in intuition, in temperament, in character. All the different attributes of the human condition are contained in this music.” | | | (Sorry, download not available in your country) | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |

| |  | Digital Recordings (1992-96)
Alfred Brendel's digital cycle of Beethoven piano sonatas now available at budget price. The set has now been rebranded as a DECCA release. Recorded in various locations between 1992 and 1996 “No self-respecting Brendel collection could be without his traversal of the Beethoven sonatas. Always a thinker's pianist, there is plenty to engage the head and some of his ideas are as controversial as they are unique.
Vital listening, though, whatever your position.” Gramophone Magazine, January 2009 “Brendel allow[s] Beethoven’s notes to speak for themselves, perhaps imposing less personality and interpretation on the music, but allowing the depth of Beethoven’s experience to be channelled through his own...the stimulating energy in [the Hammerklavier], Brendel’s farewell to this work, is electric” MusicWeb International | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |
