Beethoven: Sonaten

Barenboim

 

Heart



I think I have that somewhere - absolutely brilliant


The new recordings? I have it - the DVD; the CD; any kind of format it's been released on.

Top notch! Absolutely top notch! In fact, I'm heavily influenced by Barenboim's performance of op.110 in my own performance.


What I have isn't that new, must be over 10 years old.  It had Moonlight and Pathetique and a couple others that now escape my memory.


My knowledge is precarious (I'm writing without researching right now), but Barenboim fully recorded the Beethoven sonatas (and other things, of course) at least two times: as a teenager, and more recently, in 2005-6.
 
I tell you Gentlemen, this 1984 DG recording of  Nos 14, 8 & 23 has to be one of the best £1's I've ever spent, musically.... it's just stupendous... yet I think if you'd had given it me 10-15 years ago, I wouldn't have appreciated it as much. ...Embarrassed
 
Now, Riccy on the other hand, is light years ahead of me in musical maturity...Embarrassed
 
btw Riccy, recently, I've also REALLY fallen hard for Brahms: Piano Quintet... oh goodness me, its utterly majestic...Approve

I know the Trios (especially No.1) better than the Quintet. But as far as Quintets go, Dvorak's PQ was my most recent crush.

the disk I have has Brahms: Piano Quintet & Dvorak: Piano Quartet... both are superb (and as you know, I'm a big Dvorak fan...) but the Brahms is something altogether out of this world...Heart

Let There Be Rock has never found its way into my CD collection, so now I move on to the next release from AC/DC.

I sadly only own "Fly on the Wall" on CD. But i should "invest" in their classic albums soon.
"She's got Balls", "Bad boy Boogie", "High Voltage", "Live Wire", "Down Payment Blues", "Sin City", "Ride On"... Ahh... Early AC/DC... Approve
