Beethoven: The Late Piano Sonatas – Nos. 28-32—Igor Levit, piano (Sony 370387)
"All of the positive attention and high praise that 26-year-old pianist Igor Levit has garnered in Europe is thoroughly justified by his Sony Classical debut release encompassing Beethoven’s last five sonatas. Levit’s affinity for the composer’s essentially linear style and intense expressivity borders on clairvoyance...This is Beethoven playing of the highest distinction, not to be missed.” - Jed Distler, ClassicsToday.com
