BEETHOVEN: THREE LAST PIANO SONATAS OP. 109, 110 & 111
Ready to tackle music of which absolutely everything has been said; music that is at the same time puzzling and full of sunny simplicity: three sonatas written between 1820 and 1822; while Beethoven was working on the Missa Solemnis; his "spiritual testament". This coexistence has raised all sorts of wild comments. Richard Wagner for instance puts forth a most unusual theory – coming from him – to explain why the final opus 111 has only two movements: "The first movement corresponds to desire in all its suffering and heroicism; the second corresponds to satisfied desire; as man will experience it once he has become reasonable; vegetarian."
Far from this; Cédric Pescia; one of the most touching pianists of his generation; gives us a heart-moving; sensitive rendition of the deepest interiority.
(2009) Beethoven: Three Last Piano Sonatas Op. 109, 110 & 111 - CD 2903
Similarly to the challenge of the Goldberg Variations (CD 50-2407) which marked his debut with Claves in 2004; Cédric Pescia has launched into Beethoven's last three sonatas for 2009. He has been talking about it for a long time and now he is ready.
