Description

“not just a case of the performer subordinating himself to the composer, but of both, united in the service of music’s greatest miracle—an entire attitude to life encapsulated in sound.… From the opening phrases of each it is clear that his sights are set on long-term processes—this is not playing which depicts; rather it maps out a journey of the spirit….same total concentration and inner intensity as the sonatas; the last (moment musicaux) extends sublimely to a hypnotic 11.48!” (© Gramophone)
