Released in the 200th anniversary year of Haydn's death, this new release features pianist Tzimon Barto playing a selection of the great Classical composer's piano sonatas.
Tzimon Barto is celebrated for his "refreshing" approach (American Record Guide) to known repertoire.
Tzimon Barto is celebrated for his "refreshing" approach (American Record Guide) to known repertoire.
Barto's highly personal approach to these works - which he has devoted himself to for much of his career - enables the listeners to make their own "unexpected encounters" with these works. Making no attempt to be "historically correct," Barto focuses instead on his discovery of impressionistic elements, as well as inspiration drawn from theatre and painting of the period.
Tzimon Barto is recognised as one of the most radiant and unique personalities in the music world. His two previous recordings for Ondine - keyboard pieces by Rameau (ODE1067-2) and piano works by Ravel (ODE10952) - have received high levels of acclaim; critics have hailed Barto's musical maturity, superb technique, and endless colour palette.
