Heroic Beethoven (2xLP) - LP

This compilation vinyl double album is called “Heroic Beethoven“, but when it comes to content, we find a wide range of moods from completely intimate to those that are wide-ranging and dramatic in expression. With a slight surprise, we find almost fundamentally different works here, such as the chronically well-known piano bagatella “For Eliška“ and Beethoven' s Supreme Symphony or Missa Solemnis. Whoever suits this concept will certainly be satisfied, especially when the collection is decorated with so many resounding names.

Vs. Renaud Capuçon / András Schiff, Rudolf Buchbinder, Stephen Kovacevich, Frank Braley / Artemis Quartet / Nikolaus Harnoncourt, Otto Klemperer, Bernard Haitink
