  • Description

    Steven Osborne has been performing Beethoven live in concert for many years, always to great acclaim. Now for the first time he has committed these extraordinary performances to disc. It is clear from listening to the opening movement
    of the ‘Moonlight’ that this release will establish him firmly as one of the great Beethoven pianists of today. Performances of such passionate humility, such musical intelligence, such subtlety and yet such instinctive
    understanding of the music are rare indeed.
    This disc features three of Beethoven’s most celebrated sonatas and the miniature Op 79.
