CD Reviews

The greastest CD in a long time!!!
Tatiana A. Griffith | 09/22/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This CD has everything. It has character, history, great tuning record, great music and great musician!!!

Marco Alcantara is a new generation of great pianists! He has innovative talent you would not believe. His way of playing Beethoven has its unique way, which I believe real close to what Beethoven wanted on his music himself. The special tuning of the piano gives this CD a 5 star CD because it makes the piano sound to be real close to the real Beethoven time piano.

Marco has come a long way....He has other CDs (not sold by amazon at this moment), which are great CDs as well, but this is his first Beethoven interpretation one. And I have to say: " What a interpretation!"

Please, buy this CD if you enjoy Beethoven music. I guarantee you will love it!!!"
