Product Description
Andras Schiff s Beethoven cycle, recorded live in chronological order at Tonhalle Zurich, continues to collect critical praise as it moves forward to the
later middle period. Volume VI, including sonatas from the period
between 1804 and 1810, offers some of the most famous and widely-known works together with an astonishing variety of forms and concepts, a
constellation which, once again, highlights the attractiveness of Schiff s chronological approach.

Schiff Continues to Enthrall July 2, 2008
Andras Schiff continues to enthrall with his series of Beethoven Piano Sonatas. I highly recommend his lecture series, given at Wigmore Hall, and captured on the Guardian UK website. His in-depth exploration of these pieces is illuminating. I am most impressed in Schiff's passionate and pure takes on the lesser-known sonatas. His G Major Sonata, No 25, will thrill and delight the listener. I have nothing to say about the Appasionata - it is supremely played and lived. As for Les Adieux, the slow movement is heart-wrenching, and the last movement, the return, is a breath of fresh air. I cannot wait to hear these pieces live at Carnegie Hall this year.
