Album of the Evening

[Guidof]

 

Beethoven: Piano sonatas No. 14, 20, 23, & 30. There are many outstanding recordings of these well-known pieces. Entremont's vigorous and nuanced readings (at 85!) are among the very best..

 

Exemplary sound from a 24/88 Qobuz download.

I tried it but still can’t really fall in love with Vivaldi’s operas. But agree that this is an excellent performance, not surprising with Savall.

Scary artwork!

Just found this album on Qobuz. I’m a fan of both artists so it was a nice surprise.

Not on Tidal. I don't know about any other services.

Jaw-dropping playing and excellent sound (24/96 Qobuz)

 

 

I got this album after checking only her Stravinsky piano transcriptions. Considering the fact that she's only 26 the performances are 'jaw dropping' indeed. I've also checked her Goldberg Variations and they are also good. IMO it's quite possible that we witness the birth of a major pianist talent. 24-96

I  like how the piano was recorded - not forward or "bright" yet very present, clear, and a good (but not too much) hall sound/reverb (let's be honest) added.  Her style is drawing me in as well...I will no doubt purchase this.
