Description:

[Decca Best 100 premium] This disc contains Beethoven's last three piano sonatas, which beautifully reflect the spiritual world Beethoven reached in his later years, and are by no means an exaggeration to say supreme. Mitsuko Uchida's performance perfectly reproduces the difficult works with flawless pianism, and her earnest pursuit of the music brings us to the heart and essence of the clear-cut pieces. She describes these three pieces as "Beethoven's uniquely concentrated, tragic, and majestic world, the glorious conclusion to his 32 sonatas.
