Beethoven (1770-1827)

Description:

Maurizio Pachariello, a keyboardist who is recognized as one of the leading Beethoven players in Italy today, and has won a prize at the 48th ARD Munich International Music Competition in 1998 and made his debut at Carnegie Hall in New York City in 2003. Currently passionate about performing on period piano and known as an authority in this field in Italy, Pachariello launched the third volume of his complete Beethoven piano sonatas in the fall of 2017, which includes three works from "Waldstein" to "Passions," circa 1840. Pachariello, who has played a variety of period pianos, including French Boislos, an 1885 Bösendorfer, and a late 18th century clavichord, prepared the instruments for Beethoven's sonatas on an 1810 Broadman replica made by Ugo Casilla. This is the latest volume of the complete works, with attention to detail in order to faithfully reproduce the sound of Beethoven's time. Tokyo M-Plus
