The Best Performances of the Beethoven Sonatas?



Hello again Dear Readers.
In recent weeks there has been a fair amount of discussion about the Beethoven Sonatas and which performances of them are the best. With so many brilliant pianists out there over the years, this can be a very difficult question to answer. Everyone will have a different opinion on this BUT I'd like to suggest that you take a look at this video (make a point of continuing on to the magical 2nd part as well) and marvel in Claudio Arrau and his interpretation of the
Arietta from the Piano Sonata No. 32 in C minor op.111.
Claudio gets my vote.
Let me know what you think.
