Beethoven, Rudolf Serkin - The Last 3 Piano Sonatas Nos 30 32
Review by Louis Carter
The Last 3 Piano Sonatas Nos 30 32 by Beethoven, Rudolf Serkin is a truly remarkable album that showcases the immense talent and skill of both the composer and the performer. The album features three of Beethoven's final piano sonatas, each one a masterpiece in its own right, and performed with great passion and precision by Rudolf Serkin.
The album begins with the Piano Sonata No. 30 in E Major, Op. 109, a beautiful and complex composition that features a wide range of emotional and musical themes. Serkin's performance is outstanding, capturing the depth and complexity of the piece with ease.
The second sonata on the album is the Piano Sonata No. 31 in A-flat Major, Op. 110, a dramatic and intense composition that showcases Beethoven's mastery of the piano. Serkin's interpretation of this sonata is breathtaking, capturing the power and intensity of the music with his masterful playing.
The album concludes with the Piano Sonata No. 32 in C Minor, Op. 111, a monumental work that is widely regarded as one of Beethoven's greatest compositions. Serkin's performance of this sonata is nothing short of stunning, bringing out the emotional depth and complexity of the music with his virtuosic playing.

About Beethoven, Rudolf Serkin
German composer and pianist, born in 1770 (baptized 17 December 1770) in Bonn, Germany and died 26 March 1827 in Vienna, Austria.
A crucial figure in the transition between the Classical and Romantic eras in classical music. Beethoven led Viennese Classicism to its highest development and paved the way for Romantic music.
Beethoven was the eldest son of a singer in the Kapelle of the Archbishop-Elector of Cologne and grandson of the Archbishop's Kapellmeister. He moved in 1792 to Vienna, where he had some lessons from Haydn and others, quickly establishing himself as a remarkable keyboard-player and original composer. By 1815 increasing deafness made public performance impossible and accentuated existing eccentricities of character, patiently tolerated by a series of rich patrons and his royal pupil the Archduke Rudolph.
Beethoven did much to enlarge the possibilities of music and widen the horizons of later generations of composers. To his contemporaries he was sometimes a controversial figure, making heavy demands on listeners both by the length and by the complexity of his writing, as he explored new fields of music.
