CD Reviews

Bravo to Perl! A Great Way to Experience Beethoven
10/04/1998
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Beethoven would no doubt approve of this fine collection of his thirty-two piano sonatas. Alfredo Perl gives passionate, thoughtful performances that rightly put the focus on Beethoven's music and not Perl himself. I especially enjoyed Perl's rendition of the Diabelli Variations, which is included on a bonus 10th disc; I found his interpretation of the variations to be one of the finest in recent memory. Moreover, at this price, this collection (over 12 hours of music) is hard to beat-- either as an introduction to the magic of Beethoven's piano sonatas, or as a fresh take for those already familiar with these seminal works. Bravo!"

"Thanks to Arte Nova and the artists for giving us top-quality Beethoven performances (symphonies, string quartets, and piano sonatas) at below-top prices. The Perl piano interpretations are comparable to those of Kovacevich and Brendel. The sound quality of these CD's is excellent, and I feel Perl plays the lyrical and dramatic passages of the sonatas just right. If you are interested in getting acqainted with all the Beethovem piano sonatas and the Diabelli variations (op. 120), this is the set to buy. This collection also makes a great gift to a music-loving friend!"
