 Rating:  - Must See, but its not great accross the board!First off Im not a musician, what I say is like 90% of the reviews, just plain old subjective opinions based on individual taste. I do however have several recordings that I listen to quite often by the major interpreters and I find Barenboims in the middle of the pack on most of my favorites. Im not 100 positive but many times it sounds like he hits wrong notes in the harder sonatas and is unsure of himself at times also as can be expected as it seems he conducts more than he does virtuoso work. (I almost feel stupid saying anything bad about a performer of this caliber when I struggle with chop stix) That being said there is nothing that should stop you from buying these they are done well, a lot of camera angles although sometimes I wish ... Read More: Rating:  - barenboim at his bestThis is what barenboim was born to do,its amazing how much better he is on the piano than conducting,from the first sonata to the last he masters them all,my favorite is the waldstein.I think hes always had a great understanding of beethoven even his conducting some of his symphonys, but this set is among the finest on disc. Rating: - A refreshment and a very good time.If you study every piece before - read more information about each sonata before you list - it gets greater and greater. - I just think the booklet should contain more information than it does. I paid for this package Euros 99,99 in Berlin. Rating: - PhenomenalThis is, by far, one of the most valued treasures of my CD and DVD library. If I were stranded on the cliche deserted island and left with my choice of DVD to possess, this would be it hands down. I would also try to cheat my way into bringing the equally exceptional performances of the piano concerti on DVD. Not only are these performances extraordinarly brilliant, but are accompanied by six masterclasses given by Barenboim in Chicago. These masterclasses are more than beneficial to watch. Even if one is playing one of the other 26 opused sonatas (or something entirely different), these in-depth classes are indispensable. At the time I'm writing this review, this set is currently 30% off. Do yourself a favor and take ... Read More: Rating: - A real trasureBarenboim's Beethoven is more intelligent and more musical than others. His sense of structure, his touch, his ability to make the piano "sing", everything is superb. The masterclasses give us the oportunity to understand the performer's points of view not only on Beethoven but also on music. A TREASURE just like this, in capital letters!!! |
