Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - (+) Record of the Year? Well, Hardly!
A few weeks ago, this three-disc and final installment in Paul Lewis's complete Beethoven Sonatas survey was awarded the prestigious Gramophone Record of the Year accolade. Having been a Gramophone subscriber some five years ago, I do (actually more did) on average value its reviews. However, I seldom take them at face value, especially when it comes to British artists or labels. Having said that, similar tendencies can easily be identified when it comes to the Grammy Awards and American artists ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - an opus 111 for the ages
i have played only the opus 111 sonata no 32 so far but based on that performance alone, this is a must have recording. i would rank this performance right up there with the greats of all time, namely, richter (live), pollini, arrau and michelangeli. the final measures of this, the greatest sonata ever for piano, are simply spellbinding and breathtakingly sublime. i frankly was stunned by the depth of lewis s spiritual insight into this music.
with this recording, lewis has arrived at any ... Read More

I bought this set because I like both Brendel ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent conclusion to Lewis' Beethoven cycle
Paul Lewis finishes his superb Beethoven sonata series. Consistently fine playing throughout, with Opus 111 a particular highlight. Lewis has given us kind of a modern day Wilhelm Kempff approach to Beethoven. Wonderful lyrical approach, with broad tempos and a powerful technique when called for. Coupled with fine sound, this is a top choice for me for a modern cycle of the greatest piano music ever writen. I am also following Ronald Brautigam's fascinating sonata cycle on forepiano on BIS, which is about ... Read More
