Downunderman's comment above is absolutely confirmed with the Peter Frampton: Frampton title that I own. I have ordered this Camel album, as well as ...

Porra: Entropia - Kuusisto | Robert Fernandes - November 18, 2023

I was fortunate to hear/see Lauri Porra perform Entropia with the Seattle Symphony earlier this week, with his wife conducting no less! I bought, and listened to this entire ...

Mahler: Symphonies 1-9 - Maazel | Adrian Quanjer - Today 03:08 am

Interesting food for thought, indeed. On a slightly different track: Some time ago I reviewed Schubert: Symphonies 1, 3 & 7 (8) - de Vriend in which I paid ...

Bill Evans et al: The Blues and the Abstract Truth | Tony Reif - November 9, 2023

The artist of this record is not "Bill Evans et al" or a collective, it has always been Oliver Nelson, and it's unhelpful that those searching under his name will not find ...

Beethoven: Piano Sonatas, Vol. 10 - Korstick

Oehms Classics OC 663

Stereo/Multichannel Hybrid

Classical - Instrumental

Beethoven: Piano Sonata Op. 106 "Hammerklavier", Bagatelles Op. 126, Klavierstück WoO 60, Klavierstück WoO 61a, Rondo Op. 129 "Rondo a capriccio"

Michael Korstick (piano)

The superb reviews prove that it remains well worth it, both for the artist as well as for the CD label, to bring a complete Beethoven sonata cycle to market. The meticulousness with which Michael Korstick not only plays, but also researches, is unique.

The pièce de résistance of Volume 10 is No. 106, the “Great Sonata for the Pianoforte”.
