LUDWIG VAN BEETHOVEN (1770-1827) : Piano Sonatas Nos 3, 7, 12, 22

In stock

This original programme abruptly juxtaposes early sonatas, based on the models provided by Haydn, with the impatience of Sonata No.22. This longforgotten diptych, as brief and adventurous as it is essential owing to its modernism, foreshadows the return to Bach, given a new treatment by Reger and Berg. Svjatoslav Richter charms with his Haydn-like sense of humor, then sharply addresses the listener in the Opus 54.
