CD Reviews

Solid Mix of Gould

Christopher Kosloske | 06/16/2008

(4 out of 5 stars)

"This 3 Cd Set contains works by the composers, Beethoven, Haydn, and Mozart.

The Beethoven Works include :

Piano Concerto No. 1 in C, Op. 15

Piano Concerto No. 2 in B Flat, Op. 19

Piano Sonata No. 30 in E, Op. 109

Piano Sonata No. 31 in A Flat, Op. 110

Piano Sonata No. 32 in C Minor, Op. 111

The Mozart Works include :

Piano Sonata No. 10 in C, K. 330

Fantasia & Fugue in C, K. 394

The Haydn Works include :

Piano Sonata No. 49 in E Flat, Hob. XVI

All of the works on this set can be found on other albums. The Fantasia and Fugue, and the Haydn Sonata can be found Glenn Gould's volume dedicated to him on the Great Pianists of the 20th Century. If you are huge fan of Glenn Gould, this is an album to pick up for sure, or if you are missing any of this music by him. The Haydn Sonata, and last Beethoven Sonata for me are the highlights of the album. I personally recommend and enjoy The Glenn Gould Legacy Volume 4 album more which contains works from Krenek, Schonenberg, Berg, Scriabin and Prokofiev."
