The Beethoven sonatas can be logically divided into three distinct groups: early, middle and late. To me, playing them in chronological order is most convincing and deeply satisfying. Among the thirty-two there is not one weak link. And this way the listener is able to follow the process of evolution, step by step. It is a learning experience; we are fellow travellers on a fantastic voyage.”

This specially-priced 11 album-edition contains the complete piano sonatas by Ludwig van Beethoven, recorded live in concert at the Tonhalle in Zürich. It also includes the encores from these concerts with works by Schubert, Mozart, Haydn, Beethoven and Bach, as well as an extensive booklet, which re-collects all original conversations around the sonatas, and adds an insightful new text by András Schiff reflecting upon the “Encores after Beethoven”.

I switched lossless to 24-44.1 :)
Once I tried to copy his Beethoven but I knew soon he is not my kind, for me stiff or uncomfortable, so as a listener too :p
Siopophobia ??, sorry :p
He includes introduction when repeating exposition of No. 8 1st movement, very rare !?
I prefer younger András on Decca :)
Thanks anyway

@Olga, I'm with you on the preferring the younger Schiff. He's always fascinating to hear speak on the works he performs, but his performances seem very self-conscious and stiff, especially compared to his Decca recordings.

Agree Olga, same thing with Brendel, I much prefer the old Vox set to Phillips.
Oh the spark of youth!
