Jonathan Biss continues his nine disc Beethoven Sonata cycle by presenting Volume 5, with a most unique perspective: "20 years, and an entire cosmos, separate the sonatas that bookend this recording. The evolution that takes place within Beethoven between the C Major Sonata, Opus2 Number 3, and the A Major, Opus 101, is monumental, almost impossible to overstate: I struggle to think of an artist — not Picasso, not Schoenberg, not Joyce — who changed so profoundly over the course of a working life. But what was the change, really?" Join in the answers Jonathan provides is this beautifully recorded performance.
