(27 October, 1992)

(11 April, 1995)
(10 reviews)  Customer Review: Beethoven Soothes the Soul: I think Beethoven was a masterful composer when it came to the adagios and more peaceful movements. He is quite good at creating an atmosphere of tranquility and meditation. This is a bit unusual considering Beethoven had a stormy and distressed life. How can a tempestuous deaf man.. DEAF man, |

(15 July, 1997)
(4 reviews)  Editorial Review: Recorded live in 1983, Alfred Brendel's third go-round with these works drastically improves on his previous Beethoven concerto cycles. He finds a calmer, more direct route to the Emperor Concerto, although the Fourth's first movement is still pock-marked with finicky phrase adjustments that pull focus from the music's poetic arcs. |

(09 November, 1999)
(16 reviews)  Editorial Review: Claudio Arrau played with seriousness of purpose that could make other pianists seem like dilettantes and with respect for the composer's score that bordered on veneration. He had nothing but scorn for pianists who played the opening of Beethoven's Opus 111 with two hands instead of one because there were fewer risks. |
