Wilhelm Kempff (piano)
[ Deutsche Grammophon CD + Blu-ray audio / 9 CD Box Set ]

Wilhelm Kempff recorded the cycle of Beethoven's 32 piano sonatas several times from 1926 onwards, and in stereo in the 1960s. Six decades on, DG proudly presents this legendary latter set at the highest-possible resolution, at 24-bit, with the inclusion of a Blu Ray Audio disc containing all 32 sonatas.
"At his best, he played more beautifully than any of us." Alfred Brendel
"Kempff's performances of all the great named sonatas are triumphs of communicative music-making" Gramophone
"These are all great perfornmances, and the remastered recordings have all been enhanced to an extraordinary degree to give an uncannily realistic piano-image, helped by the immediacy of Kempff's communication."
