Ludwig van Beethoven: Piano Sonatas No. 8 in C minor, Op. 13 ("Pathétique"), No. 14 in C sharp minor Op. 27 No. 2 ("Moonlight Sonata"), No. 23 F minor Op. 57 ("Appassionata"), No. 31 in A flat major Op. 110 - Elly Ney (p)

Your face is unforgettable; one can certainly see wisdom here as well as a mature and rarely found sense of values, and this view is supported by their playing. Perhaps she is exaggerating the small hesitant moments of the bar lines in the closing movement of the "moonlight sonata"? Is the middle sentence too slow? Maybe, but there is a pronounced allegretto, and this slow tempo, which may well be right, captivates the listener more and more ... It is best in the variations where its playing takes on an almost hypnotic quality. The finale is not too polished, but it is effective enough, and like Browning, she does the long repetition in the second half of Fischer that she is always ignored. In their hands, this repetition seems to make sense and be worthwhile.
