AU $105.42

  
Label: ABC Classics Cat. No.: 465 758-2 Medium: CD No. Discs: 9

Boxed set of 9 CDs.

3600 hours of rehearsal and 3 years in the making. The complete piano sonatas of Beethoven, performed on the highly acclaimed and revolutionary Australian Stuart Piano by Gerard Willems, winner of the inaugural Queen Elizabeth II Australian Musical Scholarship and two ARIA Awards.

Further details including audio preview and video clip.

"I can think of no higher praise of Maestro Willems musicianship than to say that I find his performance of these sonatas as deeply moving, as intelligent and insightful as any I've heard. And that includes some pretty exalted company: Sviatoslav Richter, Artur Schnabel, Ernst Levy." - Russell Lichter, Stereo Times (USA).

"I have no hesitation in recommending this box of discs as an important event in the process by which our musical life and enterprises grow and diversifies - *****" - Roger Covell, Sydney Morning Herald.

"Willems's versions are technically triumphant, intensely musical and have provided me with extraordinary pleasure... No. 1 in Top 10 recordings of the decade." - John Carmody, Sun Herald.

"All the performances reveal Willems as a sensitive and thoughtful interpreter of Beethoven..." - Tony Way, The Age.

"The playing is felicitious and well-judged, full of Beethoven's passion, introspection and spirit... there is no doubt this is a major Australian undertaking that adds another dimension." - Kim Lockwood, Herald-Sun.
