Gramophone (UK): SCHUBERT Piano Sonata No 18 HAYDN Piano Sonata No 31

This is Guillaume Bellom’s first solo CD and his debut on Claves. His programme contrasts Classical-era Haydn and Schubert with the very different world of his compatriot Debussy. He has previously recorded a disc of Schubert’s piano duet works so perhaps it’s not surprising that he should sound utterly at home in the G major Sonata, D894, with...

Classical CD Of The Week: Child's Play - The Complete Beethoven Sonatas

Records are made to be broken, even in classical music. When then-24-year-old Korean HJ Lim recorded the (just-about) complete Beethoven Sonatas for EMI (Warner), released for a tenner on iTunes, it made a splash more for its audacity than quality. Two years later, in 2014, she was bested in every way: Swiss-born Chinese pianist Mélodie Zhao had...

CD Hotlist: From Bologna to Beromünster, Mass & Psalms Op. 36

I love recommending world-premiere recordings, especially of pieces that have been overlooked for centuries; there’s just a visceral thrill to hearing a piece come to life aurally after being in limbo for such a long time. When the work or works in question are as fine as these are, the thrill is even greater — and this recording really is a ge...
