Music reviews of Beethoven:Piano Sonatas Nos. 21, 30 & 32 / Piano Concerto No. 4 / (33) Diabeli Variations, Opp. 53, 58, 109, 111, 120 (Great Pianists of the 20th Century)
Music Review: Too Hot, Too Cold
Rating: 2 Stars
Quite disappointing. To start, the 2 CD's in this collection are labeled white on gold with microscopic characters so you cannot read under normal circumstances. But actually there is nothing to read because other than the pianist name and copy rights, the discs are not labeled (you can label them after listening). But these are the minor problems. I guess I have a problem with Schnabel: he makes everything extreme; piano is too quiet, forte is too loud, fast is to fast, slow is too slow. It is so "Hot or Cold" I could get the flu. You would think that sonata No 21 is fool proof, but when Schnabel plays it, the first movement goes so fast, it turns into a blur of sounds. The second movement so slow, you get bored. Then the 33 variations... I could not master the discipline to finish them more than once. If you were after sonatas No. 30 and 32, I would opt for Brendel's recording anyhow. Brendel's 1995 recording (Philips) is as close as you could ever get to absolute perfection!
