Ludwig van Beethoven: Sämtliche Klavierwerke Vol.1 on Super Audio CD
Sämtliche Klavierwerke Vol.1
The SACD uses a higher digital resolution than the audio CD and also offers the possibility to store multi-channel sound (surround sound). To enjoy the music in high-end quality, a special SACD player is required. Thanks to the hybrid function, most of the products marked "SACD" in our store can also be played on conventional CD players. In this case, however, the sound does not differ from that of a normal CD. In case of deviations, we point this out separately (non-hybrid).

The slow introduction of the 'Pathétique' Sonata - announced by the most famous C minor chord in the history of classical music - is the starting signal for a projected 17 CD series of Beethoven's complete works for solo piano performed by Ronald Brautigam on the fortepiano.
Brautigam's surveys of the piano music of Haydn and Mozart have won unanimous praise in the musical press. As he now progresses to the climax of the Classical period (and the onset of the Romantic era), everything is set for an experience out of the ordinary.
The works on this first volume were composed between 1797 and 1800, when Beethoven was not yet thirty years old. They are performed on a fortepiano especially built for this project by Paul McNulty after a Walther & Sohn instrument from about 1802, and have been recorded in multi-channel surround sound. This Super audio CD is a so-called hybrid disc, playable on all CD and SACD players.
Reviews
Stereoplay 12/04: "Mit zügigen Tempi und kontrastreich- schroffer Dynamik bezieht Brautigam eine klare, prägnante Gegenposition zu den eher lyrisch-innerlichen Klassiker-Erkundungen anderer Klavier-Historisten. Von derlei 'schlagkräftigen' Beethoven-Plädoyers gerne mehr."-
